tangcla's car, finally finished!

Oh dude... tangcla have you realised how many wheel spokes you'll have to individually clean each time you wash the car? 14x4 = 56! :shock:

You're going to spend half an hour on the wheels alone each time!

Cheers,
Deucer.

actually it's 15x4 = 60.

Maybe we should just call this "Stage 1"

Your car looks the goods mate!

Its a good balance, where it looks different from most other Liberty's, but not different enough to attract unwanted attention etc. Perfect for a daily driver car.

Yeah, I can't see you not spending anymore money on mods. I'm sure you'll find something else you'll want!

I should say, there's nothing else I can think of that I want to do to the exterior.

Got a few things I want to tinker with... maybe a double DIN GPS in place of the cubbypod, or replace the Mcintosh with something else. Maybe.

I just realised I never posted anything on this during my absence. But good job, Clarence!

Good taste all around to produce a nice, customised elegant car. Great list of mods too! Makes the silver look very elegant. Any plans after this or are you settled in?

hehe, it's ok, you PM'd me about it, that's good enough

I'm posting less on here now cos I can't get to the forum at work.

so only at night.

I'm done for now... still waiting on tune when I can be bothered... once that's done, I'm done modding the car.

As it is, I drive the car once, maybe twice a week. Contemplating selling it at some point... I mean, in the last 13 months, I've driven 14,000km - 900km of that was from Syd-Melb when I bought it, and 1500km to Canberra and back for Alan's wedding in Feb

tangcla's car, finally finished!
