    What covers exactly?

    You mean split holden covers or fibreglass ones?

    The split holden ones look great when sprayed, the fibreglass ones look tacky imho.

    You can buy the holden ones at Holden for around $100 a set.

    HSV ones look pretty sweet, bar the 300.
    VZ 5.7 Litre ones look the go too. Thanks for doing some research.

    These are genuine Holden ones. I've got the same on mine and they set me back about $110 for the pair.

    Not only do the covers not go back on, the performance doesn't go back on either.

    Seriously, why would you buy a performance car then run it on bbq fuel?
