Well here goes my first attempt at using photobucket, with pictures of my povpack SX that's been jazzed up just a little bit.

Maybe I'll just attach the first one and see if that works better!

nice car! black looks very sleek on the i30 and your rims complement the colour very nicely

with the image hosting, when you source the image when posting you have to do each one seperately

elsewards nice pic! (got to lazy to check the rest ><)

Thanks llink_1111.  Ouri30 had already PM'd me and I've made the corrections, so now everyone else can disregard the 2 messages that followed.

Hi OMV....

Looks great.... My Daughter has a black getz and I have encouraged her to go with mags that have some black on them when she gets round to it...

Thanx for sharing  ;)

Nice, I really like it! What size are the rims on your car? 16 or 17 inch?

Nessa & others

Thanks for the comments.  I like it too!

As for the rims, they're 15".  I took a punt that they would look alright because I'd spent my budget on other improvements.

As it turned out I was very happy with the final result.  The original Kumho's can be a little noisy on the open highway, but they'll get replaced eventually, and they handle fine for standard profile tyres.

Very nice OMV,

I love the look of black cars, just not the maintanence that go with them.
The alloys and spoiler compliment the car well. You should consider lowering it. It will handle better and look great.

Welcome cammj.  I see from your other postings that you should be picking up your SR any day now.  What colour?  No doubt I'll see you around... maybe we could compare rides first-hand one day?

Thanks AJ.
I had the spoiler fitted by the dealer prior to delivery as an add-on option.  It cost $495 AU.  There's another thread somewhere on this forum that gives step by step instructions on fitting one. It doesn't look difficult.

From where Im from, the only add-ons offered are the bodykits and the stock 16" sportsrims (looks cool, but  not as cool as yours :D ) .

Thanks for the info mate, love what u did to the car

Are there any after-market spoilers worth looking at? - Or do you recommend the Hyundai genuine article?

I'm no expert on mods, so I'm not really that aware of other options. However you could check out http://www.koreanautoimports.com/store/ ... ath=31_158 as was posted on the forum. It just so happens that  I bookmarked it (thanks to whoever posted it up originally).
I'm sure that there are plenty of others on the forum who can help... perhaps post a query in the modifications section.
Cheers
