Hi everyone,
Below Ive attached a few photos of my new car, which i purchased late last year.
Ive performed a few mods to the car which are all cosmetic at the moment.
Lowered - Pedders springs
G8 boot lip
GXP rear bumper garnish
Tinted windows 15%
Small aerial
Black front insert
Let us know what you think
Car when it was standard

Looks good mate, post sum pics up with the updated mods.
looking good mike gotta take pics together of the 2 beasts haha
Nice car man.
Can we see what it looks like with the mods?
I'm interested in the G8 wing. Is it the same as a Calais wing?
Also, any dramas fitting the rear diffuser? How'd it turn out?

Yeh mate the G8 lip is the same as the calais one, The reason i said G8 lip as it comes in a few on the SS colours, were the calais one dont
The rear diffuser caused a few hassles while trying to install it, but i followed the instructions found on one of the forums on this site and it eventually fitted on quite nicely
Just a few pictures to show what ive done to the car so far
Nice work man, looks horn.

Haha...Looks very similar to mine, except mine's silver, debadged & ive got the full bottom lip kit. Did you get your diffuser fitted by BR @ chev's or did you do it yourself?
Ye, i was thinking of debadging the rear as well. Have you got any photos up or urs???
I fitted the rear diffuser myself. Only cost $40 for it, Now next im hoping to get a tune and exhaust system done. Still shopping round to see which tuners the best, so many out there these days
Mate firstly love the car.
Secondly, where did u get the black front insert from? It's 4 my dad's got a SIDI SV6 sportswagon.
The Blue One

[QUOTE=y try;1517835]Here you go mate, as for tuners i cant recommend Chev's performance centre highly enough...Excellent service no bs advice & they wont charge you an arm & leg, VCM/Autotechnique are very good also.
Thanks for the recommendation, ill definitely give em a call and speak to them.
Ur car looks real good wif out the rear badges.....and yes they do look quite similar lol
Yep, just held on with adhesive, no holes in the boot.
There's a good thread on here about de-badging called "How to Debadge Your Car in 10 Minutes". Suggest you use that as a guide.
Don't forget to give it a good polish under where the badge was, as you'll probably put tiny, fine scratches in the clear coat. Good luck!![]()
Ive been mucking around with my Grill lately.
Just wondering what your opinions are on the below photo???

How'd you do that? Did you replace the whole mesh?
