    I'm in two minds about the rims, but looks like a very nice straight Q you have there.

    Any interior pics?

    LOL....a simple post gone wrong...!!....My 1st to be exact...
    thanks to all either way!
    Hasnt had the original springs replaced yet and will sit on superlow kingys when fitted.
    I'll have some pics up of the interior shortly when the weather strips arrive....Doortrims waiting to go on still and fitting whole floorpan with dynamat tomorrow.
    As for the wheels, each to their own even though your suggestions(Gassed) are a great selection and far better nostalgic look...Thats the joy of wheels...u can change the cars look in 1 go...If I could find the 17" HQ GTS rims that were from QLD that would be my choice. More pics soon!

    haha yeah.
    At least I tried to say I like them and not have a go at you. I dont think people should tell other people to change their cars so they like them more when its your car to do what you want with. constructive critisism is a better way than being a jerk and calling people names.
    The Q looks straight and tidy, I bet she's a real pleasure to drive.

    I'm ol skool on the rim thing, 15 inch black stock rims with red walls would give it a bad arse Aussie mafia type look! But as stated above, it's your car and it's what you like. Done well with the body and paint mate, look forward to the interior pics.

    cheers, Scott

    can I throw my 2cents in?? Id paint the wiper grate & radiator fan gaurd body colour, change the red tape on the heater hose to black... perhaps put the battery in the boot, thats about it. otherwise carry on as you are, very smooth well done, please dont put a hood scoop on it, wheels are a personal thing & thank god you hav'nt put a drop tank in it

    Luv black cars. Nice looking paint! Those wheels could almost look like GTS rims if you did a bit of detail painting to the spokes in gunmetal grey. How about you photoshop gurus doing a few wheel changes, if HQ dosnt mind.
