80shovelhead's VZ Calais

[80shovelead]

thanks StealthCalais, at times i do have some trouble but thats really only when ive got a full tank that the exhaust just touches, other than that no real problems hay
black wheels on a black calais would be really nice, then just needs to be sittin on the ground to complement the wheels

Brilliant looking car mate. I've been sifting through ebay for almost a year, trying to find those cream interior parts for my VZ ute! almost impossible to get the seats...may have to lash out and get someone to re-trim them, but looking here, at least i know what a full cream interior is supposed to look like!
(& the black player wheels contrasting with the silver body certainly is the way to go!)

couple new things with the car, upgraded the sub/amp setup so that pumps pretty good now, its now 2 type R 12s in a custom box mounted in the boot, and a 1000 watt alpine v12 mono amp, also comin upto the 135k mark so time for another service, will throw up some recentish pics soon

StealthCalais, cheers man some things i have trouble gettin over, just depends on the angle i take or if i even try going over it

Corbs1234, thanks man, wow thats a fair while to have been searching, id imagine the parts would be hard to come by. A retrim sounds like the easiest way to go
cheers it does seem to get a fair bit of looks with how it is

thanks the access is easy as just gotta push 1 button and it folds out the way for 30 seconds, or i can not have the screen out at all, but it looks cooler with it out though lol

hmm not to sure on the single DIN unit but hey its your car, i personally went for double looks a bit more factory and i dont need to explain to a copper why my screen is light up

[80shovelead]

ok thats fair enough man, its easy enough for me to hide the screen away when i get pulled up
and thats the last of my worries anyway, been stickered twice and never been quizzed bout the screen

Player rims.. for a player offa car aye?? luv the car.. and the rims..

keep it up!!

[80shovelead]

thanks man! the wheels have attracted some attention thats for sure haha

[vyIIcalais]

nice car you got there mate! think i saw you last night parked at macca's on great eastern highway at about 1145! **** that thing is on its ass, keep up the good work!

[JB3s VY]

Nice ride man, so low eh, bet that gets some attention!

Just a quick Q, did getting your guards rolled help with the scrubbing? Iv got 20s on mine and have been meaning to get the guards rolled for a while now.
Cheers

[80shovelead]

vyIIcalais, thanks dude! yeah woulda been me ya seen parked there was with a couple mates who wanted a frozen coke lol

JB#3, thanks man, yeah gets looks everywere and a couple times the worng attention lol
yeah havin them rolled helped alot, if i didnt i wouldnt be able to have the car sitting as it is as the wheels would be smashing on the gaurds
depending on how low urs is or ur going to go depends on when ul need to have them rolled, its better to have it done before hand though as to save any problems
