Thumbs up My 91 VN Calais

hey all i thought its time i posted a couple pics of my car up here as i have always looked through here but never really posted.

VN Calais 91

Got the respray about 6months ago.
since then i have just been trying to tidy it up with window tint etc..
new Chrome moulds in front and rear bars also.







This pic was taken just after the roof was resprayed and i hadn't had a chance to put on the drip rail moulds.


I'll get some more pics soon.

Nice idea with the handles mate. Im not a fan of those tail lights, but it suits with the silver mate

VN Power!

yeh thats what i think about the tailights, i've seen em on dark colours and they look stupid. The door handles come up ok, with the surround being a Black with a gold pearl through it and then colur code the handle piece with the body, next thing im doing to the exterior will be VZ Calais door moulds, with the chrome strip in them, give it that new look.

here's some interior pics

Neat Calais mate. The paint job looks brilliant, I must say that i'm not a fan of those lights either.

yer climate control is the way

I just got the Ipod tucked up under the console, next thing i wanna do my sound setup, with custom boot etc. atm i have no boot just an empty steel box with a spare in it. no carpet or trims, i need some ideas for boot designs, if anyone has any ideas, that would be appreciated.

Well the car is ready for the trip to melbourne from the gold coast, all bushes, engine mounts, wheel bearings, Disc Rotors F&R and pads have been changed, this car is just too unpredictable, i am taking all my tools/ spare parts with my just incase.
