Re: Emily's 04 VR SE
I will not be using bonnet pins, far to obviously aftermarket and a bit showy for a street car.
The bonnet has an oem metal hook to secure into the oem bonnet latch, it has a large reinforced panel in that area.
Crash will obliterate fibreglass (thats why its illegal)
I cannot comment on prices sorry.
I sure the paint will be matched correctly, it will flow nicely as the front bumper is being done too (getting de-badged)
Pretty disappointed I didn't have it for the MCM meet today though

Nice! 
Need to try and organise some better photos in the sun so we can see that VR sparkle.

Love it, original and classic somehow. Eyelids are very cool.

Someone will get themselves quite a treat if they pony up. Good luck Emily, sorry to see the car go.

Re: Emily's 04 VR SE
Yep car sold today.
Ever since getting a motorbike last year, the car has pretty much sat in the garage and hasn't brought me much joy, and with $1200 rego + $1500 insurance yearly, I really couldn't justify keeping it.
I just want to say thanks to everyone I've met over the years, Ive made some fantastic friends and have grown so much as a person, and it's all because of that first little BRG NA

Sad news but you'll be back.
Which bike did you get?

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
