    Just curious. What makes the VL SL limited edition, different to a standard one?

    Otherwise looks like fun

    VL LE has extra body lips on the bottom of the bumpers and side skirts... your bumpers are standard so someone has taken the kit off or put LE badges on it and added LE seats
    Going where no late model stato/caprice has gone before.... GAME ON!!
