After a rediculous quote to paint my bumpers I decided I would learn myself. I'm stoked for my first attempt.

After 8 long years I can see the finish line and finally got a drive around the block a couple of times.
Few more things to do then off for rego.
What a great feeling the drive was! :lol:

Nice one, gotta love that first drive.
Squat, place chin on chest, tuck head and tip forward, shoulders connect with ground and back follows through, legs go over the top and feet land on the ground. That's how I roll!

Hey Tom,

Get that thing blue slipped so we can drive around the 'Burgh and terrorize everyone in our 15's...

:lol: :lol:

If we don't get arrested, we can try further afield..... like maybe, Valla. 8)

Custom built bulkhead sound system. Genesis amp, infinity speakers and kenwoood 6/9 mini subs.
Building up to blue slip slowly, not that you need a stereo for that. Tunes are important though!

Yes Tom, stop faffing around and get it blue slipped! Putting speakers in and other bling bits can always be done after she's regoed. Look at mine - no where near the finish of yours (basically an empty shell) - but she's blue slipped, regoed and being driven!
Better be regoed and on the road in time for the Wollongong Kombi Kruise 1st November ....... :P :P 8)
