Interesting...

I'd love to see a photo of the finished project, compared to how it looked when it had the body kit...

I'd be very surprised if it looks better, with out the Body Kit! :shock:

But you've done a 'Top Quality Job' with Your Calibra...

Yes i know its been a while but ive had other projects on the go my combo and now a cavalier turbo but billing gave me the push to get my finger out my arse :assshaking:

So i dusted the calibra off spent the whole day sorting the wiring out and soldering broken wires etc and even fitted the dash back into the car really enjoyed tinkering on with the car so hopefully more updates to follow soon :D

Thought it was about time this cally was finished. Steva keeps saying it will be fininished for next year then something comes along and it gets put on hold so I thought if I take charge it might actually make it to Billing 2014!!!!! And im sure he said I could drive it there!! Slowly and carefully :lol: :lol:

So lets get started!!! :D Got a few bits ready to go to the powdercoaters tomorrow. Will start rubbing the radiator down at the weekend ready for a bit of paint. Need to find a mint cream carpet and then I can finally get the cally interior out of the bedroom where it has been for the last 2 years and back in the car!
