C20NE's 1993 Opel Calibra

In 2007 I've bought Opel Calibra Color Selection ( October 1993 year). The color is "Rioja Rot" or how it called in UK, Satin Red color. This is dark cherry color with violet shade.

Styling

In 2007 car looked like that:

Everybody, who was driving Calibra, knows that this model have very bad road illumination. So first my improvement was changing my headlamps to lamps with Angel Eyes:

Now roads are shined perfectly and car at night with the switched on "Angel's Eyes" looks that:

Then I have changed springs to "-40"

After springs I've changed brakes to BREMBO.

Then I have changed my wheels from winter season R15 185/65 to summer season R17 215/40:
