After introducing myself I thought it'd be fair to share some photo's with you guys.
Was up at Stockton beach today (just around the corner) and had a blast, no effort whatsoever!

Love the rig mate - have said on the forum multiple times that the silver on blue Duco is my favorite colour combination! Love that front photo also - how did you get the 'curve' on the photo like that?

Thanks guys, I love that machine!

Aside from getting LPG installed asap (to make this thing affordable to drive hehe)
I want to get some more lights & HID's on it, New extractors & exhaust and possibly a run on the dyno, but this'll take me some time ;)
The fishing is pretty good there, heaps of fella's out there all the time, swimming not so as its an infamous breeding ground for the white pointer so surfing was out for me haha :)

Yeah mate, agree with you on that one favourite colours! Don't mind the colour of yours though either...
That curve is done with a 15mm Fisheye lens, I've used a professional camera there to do that (bit of a photography enthusiast too)
You can see on the photo above it how the horizon seems to curve too, all due to the lens.

Ted noticed bullbar slightly displaced. Also good idea to disguise no plates mate. As you never know who's lurking hear to potentially use the ID of them.

Sorry guys been away for a bit, have had some work done recently so the Patrol is running like new at the moment.
Haven't had ANY trouble whatsoever with those tyres mate, Only put em on when im going 4-wheeling, otherwise I just have a set of road tyres I keep on... bit quieter ;)

Have another photo I'd like to share, cheers!

Yeah mate, had near perfect light conditions that day, even though it was really cloudy in the background it was really bright behind me which results in a bit of a shine on my "old" paintjob and reflecting a bit ;)
cheers !
