Brilliant, love it. A 24 year old, wow. Kudos, you have outperformed HSV.

And done something about those appallingly caricatured front wheel arches.

Gets my vote.

Wow, what a spectacular eyesore.
I haven't seen anything that disturbing since watching silence of the lambs..... You know the bit where he tucks his willy in between his legs and pretends to be a woman.

Why on earth would anyone want to ruin an average looking late model car with some bolt ons that mimic an American car that everyone knows isn't sold here? I mean, Holden is a moderately, financially successful company. GM isn't. GM went bankrupt and needed US government support. Further, GM is still a loser that could end up like British Leyland; Holden should still remain in one form or another. Why would you aspire to mimic the loser in the automotive world?

Good point. I don't mind the conversion, but would never do it myself if I had a VE. Much like I would never change the Holden badges to Chev ones.

Then again I'm quite fussy in that regard. I've always loved Chev since I was a kid, but I keep my love for Chev (and other GM sectors) separate to Holden.
