Nice, gotta love a calais. like your chev sticker on rear window, night shot with the led's on sould look cool. Allways take your camera when you go out and take heaps of pic's sort through them when you get home and there's bound to be one or two that you really like.

Nice looking car But I do think It needs a good dumping LOL. I like the VP Calais. Just a question as well, How did you make the panel on you boot lid. I want something like that but not too sure where to start.
