Hey hows it going,
Just a quick query.
I currently have a VN 5L Calais which had an aero bodykit on it, now thats taken off and i am looking at getting it back to a stock Calais.
Now can anyone tell me was the calais front bumper and rear bumper the same as the SS or the Berlina ?
As i need to find out what type they were and also where to get them for cheap,
Write back cheers.
mate you still got the aero kit?
nar never had it, it had an aero kit on it but thats been put onto another car now.
calais bumper is identical to stocko rocko executive
its all in the colour![]()
So your saying buy the stock, front and rear bumper and get them to get the chrome look to it ?
yup .. calais are built from exec bodies with a different grille
Okay do you think i should get like a grp a grill, or just get the standard calais ?
negative....
the front bumpers are not the same..,
the calais front bumper is sanded down to be flat and then sprayed...
the exec bumper is rough.... i was looking into getting a new front bumper but it was gonna cost too much just to get it to a sprayable condition... and the calais has body moulding... apart from that its the same...

I've got a calai front bumper on my vn same as excecutive but the calai front bar has chrome strip around it
they're diffrent bumpers, but yeah you shoulda told me you wanted one, i had a spare one here not long ago, search the wreckers, i picked up one sprayed for $32, and a group A rear bumper for $32.. lol gotta love pickapart
