really starting to wish i waited a little longer and bought a supercharged Calais instead of my standard v6 berlina, seeing as ive bought all the chrome parts and i want calais headlights, foglights, no spoiler >.<
cbf reselling and buying one though, wouldnt get my money back on what ive spent on it so far, grr...

easy enough to drop in a super 6 or v8 into standard v6, if i dont just buy a new super 6 calais then maybe in the future i can just swap motors over when the current one has had enough? really dont know :(

First pic is SL Front SSL Rear, 95mm on 19's, Massive sub box for two subs, probably weighs 50kg, Stock exhaust (lowest point)
Second pic is SL Front and Rear. 110mm. same **** as before. (Except it has white walls so it looks a little closer to tucking.)

Also take into account the camera angles are different.
SL rear is actually higher than that.

I never scraped on SSLs on 19's. (had 17's and i sat at 60mm; different story)
I hate SL rears, no tuck...SSL rears, Tucks in drive ;)
In their defense, a tad comfier to drive in and legal.

STILL; Compressed sssls are tough as ####.
If you dont care about laws, Slam the ####ing **** out of it.

hey thanks for that, them pics do like quite similar but anyway to get a level look seeing i have nothing in the boot im thinking ill have to go SSL rear and SL front. with the stock height i have scraped the front end about 3-4 times in the 3 months ive had it (driveways, not real steep and high gutters in super market lol) gonna have to be real careful when i lower it i guess

never been in a car with these blue led lights, not sure if they are very bright or if you can still read things in the dark? i know they do look a heap better though

getting my 19" VE SSV wheels put on saturday with kumho KU31's, only $1750 including machining, fit/balance, wheel allignment from tyrepower, damn good price i think the guy stuffed up the price for the tyres because after that he was suggesting other options lol will put pics up when they on
