My brother own a VN Calais. Its lowered and the paint is custom, apart from that its stock. What else can he do it to make it look the money ? Like which rims etc.
Calais internationals 18" bro
Yes the biggest were 17" so i got 18" from a company that replicated them bigger

Mortons right not on a Calais the silver lower bumper look good enough
Two tones had it, time to resort back to single tone paint jobs !!! Why can't you put a group A kit on a calais, why do you have to follow the rest of the sheep??
Now now guys you both right one thinks the Calais looks good and the other VN group A body kit i like them both. Zedlin do wat u want becos it's your car make it look how u want as these are suggestions.
eaten by the wolfs ha ha i love it mate keep it up
The only "OMG" you'd get with a group a kit on a calais is "OMG that looks shit".
If you want to do a single colour or a group a kit choose something other than a calais. Best feature about calais' is the two tone ever since my first vk calais 2 tone has done it for me and IMO its not a calais without 2 tone otherwise it just looks like your average commodore. White & silver is a nice 2 tone colour only other option is black and silver. The best 2 tone colour groups they did. If you want a kit get a SS one nice and suttle and doesnt scream fake and tacky whenever you see it plus you can keep 2 tone and itll still look good

And i don't think two tone looks bad, i'm just a big fan of doing something a little different. Nearly every single Calais getting around at there, has a two tone paint scheme, whether it be factory, or something they've customised themselves. I just say, why not do something a little different. So don't bag out my idea's saying that they're shit, when that's just your personal opinion........
The only reason i wouldn't go a bog shouty bodykit is that you need the motor to back it up.
hence the suggestion of a High comp, NA, with 355 stroker kit !! backed up by a manual box.........
Soz bro i 4got wat u said earlier
just so ya know I'm not against ya m8. your idea is good too
