How do! New to the VX forum but i've had my VX for a while now. Any hoo, just got my alloys re - done Swweeettt and next on my list is the silver V and Silver windscreen surround done blue to match the body. The cars booked in to get it pimped costing £100 cash for the V and screen. What do you guys think of the coded look and the price for getting it done? Ta! chinky chinky

I personally think it looks better with black surround / V as colorcoding is a bit too much of the same, the contrasts of the black bits are nice.

Here are some blue colorcoded ones anyway

Thanks for the reply's and the nice pics :D I know there are loads of stuff on about taking the V off but is it worth it? I like the look with no v and the opc off center - what does that mean btw! :drink: Could save me cash just getting the frame done. One more stupid question, whats the best way to hide the stuff behind the grill once you take the V off? :beat:
