    Don't put the group A soiler or body kit as stated above with the GTS kit.
    I'd say go senator, not many people have it and its very nice.
    That and my VP has the GTS kit :P

    grp a bonnet bulge on anything but a real grp a is fail.

    forget the wallet, what kit do you prefer. choose that, do a little thing called saving money, and do it right the first time.

    I prefer the Senator kit personally, But also love the SS as to how subtle it is

    Its a matter of about $1000 for purchase, fit and paint for the SS or $2090 supply on the GTS kit.

    On my wages, that $3000 for supply, fit and paint will take ages.

    Thats the main thing i have against the GTS and Senator kits, it isnt, and it looks a bit too P plater

    Agreed GTS bodykit on a non GTS is fail! Go with the SS body kit cause the GTS one will make the VP into just another wanna be try hard Holden

    SS.

    Since i already have fogs it should go well..

    Looks like bodykit will be the last major mod for a while

    SS kit for sure, then u only need to get the skirts for all round, they run the same bumper, just with add ons..

    Already got fogs too, sweet coz they look like crap without the fogs n bezzles when the front has the skirt (lines dont match up)

    Factor in $2-3000, plus what you paid for the car, and what you've spent so far, it's probably the price of an SS anyway, rather than a V6 with a kit on it. Come time of sale, you've spent more on a body kit than you did on the whole car. Keep it realistic mate, i don't think it's ever going to happen.

    What happens if it breaks down then you can't afford to fix something. You'll have a Commodore, which looks sort of like an SS, sounds like a V6, dosen't go like either.....

    I'm all for mods and stuff, but some things i just dont get. If you didn't want an Executive, then why buy one in the first place? If it's style over substance then i would have went a Calais or something instead....

    Senator kit in my opinion is the best!
