Id plate? Suspension in the ss compared to the Berlina etc. The ss would have fe2. It will also have all the other codes for things. A quick google search on those codes will reveal what they mean. Trims etc. Seems like a lot of trouble to go to, to make a mock ss tho

When ya change your wheels, swing us your rims for my wagon ;) looking forward to some daytime pics

Id be cautious on how you go about fixing it. If its a serious accident you want to know whats going back on the road is safe. Not only for you. But for every other person around you... Just make sure its done right. For everyone else's sake if anything.

It hasn't been declared a write off or anything has it? Don't some states have rules against re registering them?

If you look in the members ride ve section there is a guy who did a forced induction instal on his my12, he listed the price of everything. Can't remember whether it was turbo or supercharged. I have a my12 sv6 wagon, and for what they are, they go great. I've seen no need for engine...

im trying to think of how compressing it would even work? ive watched king springs being made from being uncoiled, cut, heated, coiled, quenched, tempered, beadblasted and painted. assuming most springs are made this way, they are pretty well set in their ways, apart from sagging from age...

Be your best bet. If that's the way you're going

I know the series 1 and 2 are different in Aus.s1= 2006-early2010 and s2= late2010-2013 The Australia headlights changed slightly in shape between the series

Yer the colour has definitely grown on me. Wasn't entirely sold on it to begin with.

I thought about that. I'll just chuck the badges in the spare space in the back and they can have them if they want. I plan on keeping this for a while thoigh. Bout time I owned a car longer than 2 years....

What a good looking wagon tho ey? Might be biased... ;) And I didn't start all the other stuff. I just asked opinions on the look of it.

I think leaving the ssv on yours grennan would look good. I just didn't want anything on it at all. It doesnt sound like a v8 so it's not fooling anyone haha

There's a thread in the how to section using prepwash. I went to do this method but when I got to the shop the dude recommended the brand Rust-oleum Decal and Adhesive remover Just sprayed it on. Let it seep into the sticky stuff. Fishing line behind the badges and then just a bit of elbow...

my 2012 sv6 wagon has no exhaust mods and ive fitted the AFM mufflers, they for one look better but make no extra noise on normal driving, maybe perhaps a bit on hard acceleration, but that could just be engine noise haha. i also paid $60 for them and they were in pretty good nic

It shows all the codes for everything. Engine, suspension, axle etc. Just google whatever it says there and it will say what engine it relates to.
