Exterior:

* Cut and polish

I'm not happy with where the 6x9's sit because spacers above the parcel shelf etc!
Is it hard to remove the metal bridge that exists in the back for the original 6"?

[<RaBBiT>]

piss off the 6x9';s and get some decent 6 in the rear

[ParkwayDrv]

dont forget tint lol

[oosty85]

clear side indicators r cheap upgrade

[<RaBBiT>]

also calais light's don't get altezza please

[Chris_vr]

NOOOOOOOOOO Altezza lights! Maybe the clears, nah, 6x9's staying because I don't want a sub (I'm in a metal band) So I just want a tight low end, not extended.

Tint and lowering too

[Chris_vr]

Ok here's a few quick pics.
* Red dash
* Red Surround
* Level 3 Cluster
* Sony HU
* 6x9's

[<RaBBiT>]

[Chris_vr]

Cheers fellas!
Also just finished my amp and 6x9's
Damn they pack some punch, I'm quite happy with the sound

Going parts hunting on friday for calais lights

[<RaBBiT>]

[Chris_vr]

Cheers, I'm in melbourne dude

New might be the way to go

Maybe I'll find some gems at the wreckers, or not haha!

Wish me luck!

[Toddlez]

hey man, luv ur interior, how much did it cost 2 get that done?

[Chris_vr]

Cheers dude! Thanks.
It cost me $30, I just bought a 2x K+H vinyl spray and did it myself!

Red door handles are going in today when I put my front speakers in so I'll just show more pics. It's really really easy to do!

Changin my boot garnish too

[Toddlez]

sounds good man, keep us updated

[Chris_vr]

WOO! Got my pioneer 6" put in!!! Sound great!
Here's some shitty quality pics of the red door handles and speaker install :P
I'll post better pics morow of the Handle and the new boot garnish

[Chris_vr]

Couple o' more pics of the Garnish and interior
I think I'm going to take the chrome outline (don't know what it's called) from my Berlina windows and put them on this beast, and quite possibly the interior. But DAMN I want a calais inter0r

[Chris_vr]

Is it hard to remove the Chrome window outline from the Berlina???
I might have a go tomorrow!

Oh, and I debadged the car, looks very neat indeed XD

[<RaBBiT>]

the chrom is easy to remove its just the rear quarters that are hard the rear window has to come out to remove them

[Chris_vr]

Just put in the red rear door handles! haha! looking awesome. I'll post a few pics of everything soon

[CrimsonThunder]

Have u got the calais rear lights? I wanna see what they look like.

I got Altezza's, I think they look alright, if you wanna get them dont let anyone tell you not too.

[Chris_vr]

Cheers man haha, but yeah, I've seen a mates VR with clubby aftermarket looking kit with altezzas and it looks cool, but i rather mine look more classy than cool, like class on the outside, party on the inside lol!

Damn, i haven't got the lights yet, no one here has any So I think new is the way to go!

I'm getting the clear side indicators in the next few days though and might be getting a new interior sooN! Will keep you updated though. Sorry there's no performance mods yet haha, but there will be. Just trying to get her neat looking first :P

[Chris_vr]

Awesome, so today I bought the clear side indicators, made more of a difference than I thought, they look great!
