    if the side skirts are a direct swap I don't think it'd be too bad to just do those

    if you do the full kit. ie front bar, side skirts, rear bar, tail gate, hard lid, sail plane, front guards. go for it, would look like a real maloo. which looks good

    if you where thinking just the front bar... go jump off a bridge. nothing looks worse then a poorly done hsv mock up

    The phrase, "failing at life" comes to mind.

    Although, you may want to pick up some hektic chev badges to put on if you go ahead with it....

    So i guess you could infer that I say no.

    I agree, as long as you don't put a HSV badge or Maloo sticker anywhere near it

    actually, a SV6 with a few maloo bits would look way better than a SV6 trying to be a maloo. Less embarassing too when you get beaten by taxi's.

    side skirts, or rear bar on it's own would look good. Front bar looks awkward without the side fins.

    Yep thought about all that, deffs don't wanna be the try hard,
    But a mates palming off one for $200 bucks, which is a good price,
    thought about it and realized if I'm gonna do the bumper you deffs need the side skirts. But yeh no maloo badges or anything

    cozz, if your doing the front and side skirts I reckon it would look alright! Thats all the GXP is anyway. Go for it.
