nice calais mate looks to be in great order. I would suggest changing to premiem number plates and as the car is in such good order I would paint engine bay while the motor is out. And I think calais wheels polished would look sweet also or FR's if you have deep pockets

thanks, the engine bay has been painted it just needs a degrease and gernie. i was thinking of gettin the black on gold number plates but the yellow ones just give it that standard look.

I think it makes the car look really classy. The paint and wheel combination goes well together! Motors shaping up nicely. Your shed looks very similar to mine at the moment! *motions to lifeless RB30E block on phone books*
