Very sweet.

I myself prefer the unmolested look (apart from wheels). However if done properly a kitted Calibra looks gorgeous. There are a few on this site that really look the nuts and yours my friend is defiantly one of them. Its all about the quality of the finish and if your pictures are anything to go by I'd say "spot on"

From a fellow Ecotec owner well done mate. :thumb:

Thanks rob.sg-1,glad you think mine is one of the better ones sg-1,i think their is a point where you go "over the line" with modding and it becomes to much,i just hope someone tells me when im getting near that point.

Thanks animal,Demon Tweeks m8,Samco,These are the ones where you buy the lengths and cut them to size yourself.Works out very expensive but my only option as they dont do pre-cut hoses for the ecotec.
