Hey guys,

It's a pearl white sedan. Has the sports front and rear bars and the sports front grille. Arrived yesterday, will organise pics soon. Very happy with it. Yet to drive it yet though....another painful wait. I broke my neck in 2006 and am now in a wheelchair, so need hand controls installed, so that's the first mod!

Trialled an Italian system yesterday. Amazing! Want something that will complement the interior rather than stand out like dogs balls and this system is available in carbon fibre so wrapped with that! Part from that, the system is amazing compared to the bog stock controls we've been using in Australia since the 70's!

Not sure if I want to get in to much under the hood. We'll see. But I would like to put on one of those D shape steering wheels I've see on here. Look awesome, but will also help me control the wheel. Rims maybe down the track, but it's got new Pirelli's on at the moment so keen to get the use out of them.

Thought it must be about time that I threw up some pics.

She's lost her Vic plates now and has QLD ones now. Still tossing up whether I'll go personalised, and if so, what to get.

Still waiting on funding for the hand controls so still yet to drive her!

Looks nice and clean! Take a picture of the hand controls once they're installed, I'm interested as to how they're installed and how they'd work.

^Agree - very shiny and clean (and very white!)

IMHO - I think the "GT" badge looks a bit out of place though (not being the same font/style as the "Liberty" badge), but thats the perfectionist side of me coming out. as long as youre cool with it, thats what counts

Hope you get to drive (and enjoy) it soon!

Agreed. I'm not a massive fan of the GT badge either for exactly the same reasons. Not sure if it's stuck on or if there are holes and to be honest I don't know how to find out without perhaps making it worse!

i doubt there'd be holes (you dont need to drill holes to mount a badge - moreso for spoilers, etc)

Use fishing wire to cut through adeshive and separate badge from paintwork

then give it good buff/polish to get rid of any adhesive residue

Heat it up first to soften the double sided tape that holds it on.....no holes all good

Yep, I'd remove the GT badge. Otherwise, really liking the look. Nice purchase!

Thanks for the advice guys. Fishing line, hair dryer, polish... Worked a treat. Looks much nicer now.
