Luke's VN Calais

[Smallies]

Okay, so ive got my ass into gear finally.

This may sound odd - but im trying to sell my caprice (still) and dedicating more to the calais. Havent driven it in over two months due to no licence atm.

I've just ordered a full set of kings ultra lows, Still needa get an adjustable panhard rod.

Also ordered a rear venetian blind

Im not too bothered about increasing power - mainly just want a comfortable, cool looking daily driver.

so the plan for the next few months is -
Install springs
Install venetian
Darker tinted windows
some doof doof
A set of 18's (still deciding) - leaning towards shadow chrome WH Grange wheels.
a suttle, yet tougher sounding exhaust

and just a couple other things such as CAI, Lukey filter and a service.

Told ya u wouldn't leave it alone
nah sounds like good plans bud, good luck wiv it. Especially like the sound of chrome WH Grange wheels

Kniever - Its a 6, and im not that disappointed about that right now - it does the job lol.

I was also looking at the rear quater window venetians too, just to top it off.

Might do that soon once i pay some of the ol' credit card off.

And yeah - More pics soon, i keep forgetting.

Okay, so you have probably all seen one of these before, but i thought i'd post it anyway cos i love it!

My venetian came yesterday - its alot stronger and heavier than i though it would be.

Should look alright once i get my car back and put it on.

Ill get some pics when its installed soon and post them up too. It certainly should add the to coolness factor a bit.
