Recommended Posts

Hey guys. Just purchased my Aurion Sportivo SX6 (white) about 3 weeks back now and I thought id create a thread to track its progress. The car is stock at the moment but I have an extensive wishlist of mods J.

Mod Wishlist:

  • Sound System (Clarion Nx501a headunit, fusion speakers and amp. Being installed this week)
  • 20% Window Tint
  • K&N Typhoon Intake
  • 19” Wheels (thinking of going a lexus style rim gunmetal) (http://www.ebay.com....2#ht_8101wt_962)
  • Change all practical lights to white LED’s (boot, festoon, door etc)
  • Angel eye headlights from Mars Performance
  • HID Kits on the headlights and fogs (6000k)
  • Vinyl Wrapping the interior (carbon fibre or gloss black)
  • New Sports Grill with double meshing
  • Bonnet protector painted black

Unsure Mods

  • Lowering
  • Cat Back exhaust with varex mufflers

Any questions, advise or just plain comments are welcome.

Got my new sports grill last week and so I've just sent that off to the painters to get colour matched. Can't wait to get it installed.

Also got my bonnet protector last week. Took it to a local signwriter and they have just finished wrapping it in a black vinyl with AURION printed across the front. Not sure if i like the look yet will be able to tell more once its installed.

Went looking at wheels last week and I've narrowed down to two

This one which is a 19" aftermarket lexus wheel in gunmetal grey

Or this one which is a 20" Lenso rim in shadow chrome

I would appreciate any input. I'm having a hard time deciding between the two.

Yeah I'm starting to lean towards the Lexus ones.

Luke I remember you showing me those rims maybe that's why I liked them because they look great on that aurion.

I got prices on a package for both of them. The Lexus ones are $1600 (and they'll put Toyota badges on the wheels) and the lensos are $2000. So that makes me lean more towards the Lexus rims aswell.

So i put my front end together today. Both the new grill and the painted bonnet protector. Took some photos with and without the bonnet protector because I'm not totally sold on it. Need everyones opinions please.

Look-wise,Definitely without.. Unless it's installed there to serve its purpose.

+ It wouldnt go together with the Lex rims IMO.

Lol I totally see the uni brow thing. Friends of mine actually pointed out the same thing when I put it on. Im still undecided. Might wait for the rims to go on and then make a proper decision. Some people have said that it needs a badge of some kind on the front. Thoughts???

Just purchased a used set of pedders low springs on eBay for $91. Can't wait to get them installed. Looks like I'll be riding low before I even get my new rims :)
