Yeah my bad didn't catch the under the eyelid part .....That picture above is of my set that I'm in 2 minds to put on the calais or not

These ones say they fit Calais ? VL Calais Headlight Protectors | eBay But these are what your after

It did look good it was a hard decision but she's an SL and a Turbo one at that can always do another mock calais wag later on All the calais gear is off and have removed most of the wiring in the bay apart from the fuse rail have to pock that through the firewall yet

OK I've decided to do the engine bay and afew other bits and pieces means I'll miss afew shows but you get that I was sick of looking at the ugly bay lol Big ups to the bro for giving away his weekend to come down and help out After debating long and hard weather I should stay with the...

Got some Turbo hubbies they need a reco but still a good score

Hey yeah I think ya did lol small world :)

What a nuts project I personally would of kept it in the wag but hey still going in a VL lol ps -If the inside cargo panels from the wag are any good flick me a PM

whoa now thats a tail pipe lol - get a nice 3" dumpy tucked under the bumper and it will look way better cheap as mod too ! otherwise it looks to be a good starting point good luck with it

Hey guys took the wag to Night speed drag wars last night 11-12-09 with afew runs on a super slick track we ran a best of 15.07 at 146.09 so wanted a 14 but may run in the summer series when the weather is better And some vids YouTube - SIKVLT at NSDW --11/Dec/2009-- YouTube - SIKVLT...

Yeah going to Powercruise with afew other VL mates so there should be a handful of VLs cruising :) Hang it down seems to be the way I'm heading - people say keep it stealth but the whole wagon isn't exactly "stealth" looking really !

Alarm now installed with a remote boot popper and all locks have been disabled will get around to shave the door locks and areil oneday also Got my hands on a Gktech cooler kit but not to sure which way to go keep the cooler hidden or have a little show beneath the front still deciding on that...

Heat gun on the vents then mould the plastic to suit works everytime

Update - I'm all moved into my new job and house. The house has a good double garage all lined so I can chuck the heater on and work on the wagon have taken the front bumper off and will replace the front upper bumper strip as its broken have also steam cleaned the interior which came up real...

I'll PM you about the turbo parts I'm not a member of Wheels Inc is it a club of some sort ?

Yeah NZ only models along with the royale

Yeah I'm a Kiwi -I saw the title VL GTS and knew you were from NZ my brother has a white GTS mint as and I've always had a soft spot for them. I also know of a Turbo kit (all genuine factory stuff) that's in NZ forsale if your interested ?

Nice anymore info ?

That sounds pretty good aswell and that way you don't have to do the engine bay !

Nice VL mate but are you sure about changing the colour ? looks to be a good colour combo already

Thanx again guys - I'm doing it up the way I want and it's good to know other people like it too ! I've just organised some stainless strut caps swhould be here in a week or so

Thanx -with the dash I filled the groove on the passengers side then sanded it all down sprayed some thick filler primer did that 4-5 times till I was happy and painted it with some plastic flex additive also the centre console got the same treatment The dash is actually sold now but I'm...

That's some sweet power figures what time have you run down the 1/4 ?

Man $300 you can't go wrong with that Your Aussie laws are hard out we can pretty much get away with anything in NZ !!

Blue inserts FTW - smooth looking calais man good work

Painted the rocker cover And also put her on the dyno she pulled 140Kw YouTube - SIKVLT on dyno 135Kw (first run) YouTube - SIKVLT on dyno (2nd run)

Thanx fuzzy will move on quicker when the mig shows up ;)

I chopped the roof off because it will be easier access to the trailer part which will be where the back seats were plus it be like towing a parachute with the roof on :) The rear doors are staying put will weld them shut box the front off at the B pillar and put panel steel over the inside of...

Cut the roof off today and will start cleaning the diff up for paint tomorrow

I've had this idea for a while finally thought I'd give it a go My idea is to make a trailer out of a vl rear (sedan) and to mount a bbq in the boot perfect for cruises. I'd like to keep it looking as close to a calais as possible pending on parts I'll try and get ready for the next...

Had some time to kill today so finally got around to doing the bonnet strut thing been meaning to do it for ages it only took 30mins so should've done it a long time ago haha

Ok did a mission tonight and with the help of my brother pulled the gearbox out and now taking the flywheel away to get machined tomorrow and should be all good to put back together with the new exedy clutch on saturday can't wait hanging out to drive her again
