I thought it would be an idea to see what people have done to their cars over the time they have had them.

The idea of this thread is to post a picture of the car when you got it (or not long after) and then a photo of what it looks like now, with a little description of what has been done.

Before: 11 July 2003

OPELISED
17" Chrome BSA291 wheels

tinted windows (major mod)
personalised plates (even bigger mod ;) )

Thanks dude, too bad the calibra isn't popular in Aust!

If I had more $$$ I would lower it, but it handles quite well already due to the low centre of gravity.

I only really have pics after some stuff was done to it... but as you can imagine before it was just your stock Barina. I haven't done heaps... I just had 15: RJR spider chromes put on with Yoko tyres... FULL OPELISATION, except for the steering wheel - still working on that one. I have a hotdog and a lukey on it, yeah both... hotdog underneath where the resonator was and the Lukey tip. Hmm... just blue LED lights inside and in the boot. That's it really. The only things left to do is add a sub/new front speakers (I think they need replacing NOW) and I want front fog lamps). Was going to lower it... still undecided about that one. It does need bigger wheels, but for now I am ok with the ones on there.
