hey guys, just picked up my new vl calais. At the moment its just a stocky N/A calais, no real mods, just a good start for a calais turbo project. -Gold paint nice and straight, apart from the dodgy paint job on the front left corner eyelid on the calais front, and the big dint in the nosecone! -S1 Beige interior very clean. -16" mock-up vr clubsport rims (yukk!) -Impco gas system, so its a gasjet for the moment untill i turbo it -all underneath, new whiteline sway bar, ect, monroe shocks and pedders springs. -tinited windows -shaved door lock (yes only one door lol!) Turbo conversion is comming along slowly, and a little bit of paintwork needs to b touched up and then it'l be sweat. The week after new years it'l be all registered and then its time to start spending some dollars! Feedback and opinions and suggestions would be much apprieciated. this thread will be updated lots! thnx for looking guys! cheers Jay.. here's some pics let me no what u think guys! NICE AND DIRTY 1ST DAY I GOT HER! WAY TO MONSTER TRUCK SPEC AT THE REAR! ULTRA's ON THERE WAY! REAR END IS BEAUTIFUL, JUST GONA RESPRAY THE REAR GARNISH BLACK SO IT LOOKS NICE AND NEW. BAD POINTS, CHECK OUT THE FULL HABIBY BACKYARD SPEC SPRAY JOB ON THE LEFT CALAIS EYELID! AND DINTED NOSECONE, ALSO GRILL= YUKK! GOIN 4 THE CALAIS ONE, REAR LEFT PART OF THE REAR BUMPER IS FCKD ASWELL. ALL EASY STUFF TO FIX THOUGH SO IM HAPPY IM LOVING THIS INTERIOR VERY CLEAN... FUTURE PLANS ARE PADDED GLOVEBOX AND S2 HIGHRISE CONSOLE, VENIETIANS AND DVD SCREEN, MONSTER TACHO ECT...

car came up really good after the cut,, but when u fix the back left qtr,, seal up the cap and run it into the boot... it looks crap haping a cap on both sides

interior looks good , shood come up sweet when u clean it up resoration before modifacation my friend Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yer thats it.. to seal that hole up were the gas cap is would cost a fair bit wouldnt it?? will ppl pay big bucks for those grills or not that much????

its worth what someone wants to pay mate. if u don't have lucky try ebay. id say around $30-$50 mark if its good nick
