some minor updates.

i mounted Volt and Oil pressure Gauges. on the pillar. not hooked up yet, but i will do it soon. i also put a switch for them in my ashtray so i can turn them off.

got a new Calais badge from ebay off a VX. my old one was falling off. after taking it off i discovered superglue under there, so the previous owner has probably tried to glue it back on. didnt do any damage to the paint luckily. new one suits it perfectly i think.

thanks guys.

i just painted the lettering on the stock 5L engine covers. really easy to do, and came out really nice.

a great looking ride there mate....my dad's got the same car as you, but running extractors, 3 inch single exhuast, KN filter with a modded air box, sounds completely ****ing awesome on idle and under acceleration...

i recommend lowering an inch....
