[vscalaishsv]

wish i remembered to take the camera with me to get better photos

took it for a drive and OMFG the stage 2 shift kit has made so much of a difference! before it was so sluggish and not much fun to drive and now it so responsive! :driving:

 

[vscalaishsv]

got a series 2 calais glove box, stereo surround, fuse box cover and center console to replace the old one. the parts came out of a car which the owner was a really heavy smoker so it smelt really bad and was sticky... yay... not
its improved it so much and looks way better then stranded only thing now is that i have to get a new ash tray as the one i got is broken and got a chip on the lid
so tell me what yas think!
