Nicks VR

[NickVR]

Finally got my calais inserts in. Makes it look 10 times better. I bought VS door trims (cos they have the darker grey on top, mine was all one colour) got door pods too with mesh which I sprayed in a metallic grey and did my door locks to. Sprayed the orange part of the lock the same colour as my car. I'm very happy with the result.

Good news
They are pretty cheap at about $25-$35 each.

Bad news
Holden don't make them or have any left for sale.

Sort of Good and sort of bad news
Go to the rarespares website and put it on their wish list. If they get enough requests they will make them. But not sure what price they will sell them for so could be as much as $50 each if they make and sell them, but that is still cheaper than most wreckers are asking for them - $295 for a set of four. I still need one for my rear right (thats why pics of the left hand side only)

Here are some details for you -

HOLDEN PART NUMBERS
Chrome Handle 92054283

Handle Surround R/H 92034139 FX81

Cheers for the comments. Would love to airbag it but there is so much more i wanna do and not enough money to do it. The engine bay is pretty tidy but not as clean as that anymore. Should give it another good going over.

I think thats it so now for some pics.







This started nearly 8 weeks ago and i've just finished putting it back together (Got it back 2 weeks ago). It went to the paint shop with almost no interior except front seats and dash. Now I just got to give it a wash and a polish, paint shop already did it but now it's a bit dusty and needs to look pretty for C4C4. Thanks to the guys at The Body Repair Shop they did an awesome job and were great with helping out with everything.

Ok I've got it all cleaned for C4C4 and took a few photos. I mucked around with 2 of them in photoshop.

Found this pic of it when it was relatively stock. It wasn't lowered when I bought it but it is in this pic. Imagine it at standard height with the square orange indicators and thats what it looked like when I first got it.
