Picked up some Sl's for the front pretty cheap a couple of days ago, put them in yesterday. Lower than i was expecting but looks good.
I'm getting a fair bit of rubbing from the inside of the guard (directly in front of the wheel) when turning, so im going to cut some of it out soon.

Hey man nice Calais! Do you have any interior shots? What's a plenum spacer o.O??
I believe we should all pay our tax with a smile. I tried - but they wanted cash
I'll have a look at it tomorrow that sounds like a better idea.
and @ Kuksta I do somewhere ill get some up sometime, but the interior is terrible.

Needs a clean, and the yellow cluster background came with the car

very tidy Calais, those wheels look fantastic on it!
V6 stroker would be cool.
you going to do anything about that yellow dash insert? (is it HSV monaro?) looks totally out of place, particularly with the wood grain. haha
