My calibra WIP...sealeysonic from cc.com

by sealeysonic » Mon Jul 11, 2011 8:57 am

Hi all....BigGeordieCalibra pointed me in your direction.....been here a few times years ago so i thought i would pop in and say hi.....heres some pics of my calibra 2.0l 8v....some good some bad....ive had her 5 years and love it ti bits lol

This is when i had the full body kit fitted(DIY)
Image

the arch kit still needs smoothing in

Image

Fitted HIDs

Image

A side picture

Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

The rear end

Image

My interior

Image

I had to reline the roof liner after the covering peeled off lol

Image
Image
Image


My old cally redtop :roll:

Image


Well over the years ive done all the work myself in my spare time...its not the bedt job as i was a newbie and flying blind

so.....2011....hmmm big changes...the front MCR rallying numper was showing its age...so that came off...i did not loke this view....any more..

Image

but i only liked this view....
Image

so...she now looks like this after 2 hrs work.....
Image

Side skirts off
Image

after i did this i began to appreciate the standard callys lines and knew i was going in the right direction..!!

Image


Now i have the chance of this bumper but have found another picture of it and i dont like that either !!

Image

so thats out the window...!!

theres loads of plans for it now as me and my Gerodie partner now have this 12 plate focus to use as she has canser and carnt walk far....

Image

but its a different colour than the pic....<sobs> lol

I now have some side skirts from BigGeordeCalibra wich when i get them will looks nice....!!

Does that caravan never move. Or was the pictures taken over a weekend? And what did you use on the roof?

And standard is much much better

welcome to cc.net :D

like most i'm not a fan of big bodykits now, although about 5 yrs ago i had a cavalier with a full combat kit on it :mrgreen:
but it would be a boring world if we all liked the same things. and as bodge said keep the progress pics coming :)

It's in Top Condition...

Perhaps you should consider a decent set of 17's to modernize it's look a bit...
