Yeah I've long been an admirer of Steva's cali

His Green/Cream combo is so very nice. I have always wanted mine to look that good.
Aus. Cali Turbo Green is quite different though. "Neptune Turquoise" as its called, changes colours in different lights.
Dark Green/Blue in the Shade to Puprle/Blue in the sunshine.
Much better than the Red - having both to compare.
Both greens are great colours though.

Cheers Mycal,

Steva's Cali is Rio Verde green IIRC. After seeing some photos of how his Cali turned out I guess mine was always going to end up the same colour.

His is a high standard to try and replicate though, but I'm shamelessly going to try

Thanks for the welcomes.

I have a 1994 Calibra c20xe and have a full respray planned... Colour will be either green or white (original) not sure as yet...
Donor car came with a reiger style body kit, lenso 18's, new bucket exhaust, bonnet extension, angels with adjustable motors (yes!)

I'd stick with the Original Colour, as a complete colour change is a very big job...
Your Donor seems to have some great features, so you should have a very nice Calibra, between the two...
Hope fully you'll get it on the road within the next 6 months...

Cheers Eddey,

I realise the extra work involved in changing colours but that's why I'm paying my painter a considerable sum of money.
He knows how fussy I am and has priced the job accordingly.

6 months is about the right time frame.

It's only a respray with some front end repair.

Ok. Mark the date. I know only pic's sometime in early April 14 will suffice...
