Hit me up with what you think of her and if you have any ideas about making her look sexier. cheers

Nice Calais and the SSV's really do suit it , like you say the silver on silver just gels well.
Some nice work with the pics too.

haha cheers guys :) sorry about the giant pics :p
yeah I love her to bits apart from the bad start we have had. (over heating issues) but we should be all fixed before the end of the week and start again :D
The vz Calais is such a smooth design and they have all the interior parts spot on. expect the only thing I dislike about the car is the alloytec engine layout.
great 190 k/w engine but just not a smart layout. theres bits everywhere and some simple things like on the eco-tec are such a hassle to get to on this.

Is there any chance you could check what colour of VHT Vinyl Dye matches up with your Black pillar trims?
