    Default VN grpA/VP GTS kit fitting question.

    Hi,
    Im deciding on a kit to fit to my stock VP, was originally deciding between senator and ss, but recently found a VN group A kit on ebay (just the front, back and sideskirts) that claims to fit the VP. Ive been told by the seller and some people the VN group A is a flush fit to the vp and looks exactly like the GTS (then again what sales person wouldnt tell porkies lol), but then i got told by others theres gapping on the headlights when put on a VP.

    Heres the listing

    VN - VP GRPA BODY KIT LOWER KIT ONLY PICK UPS OK NEW - eBay Body Kits, Exterior, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 06-Sep-10 17:18:49 AEST)

    If anyone can clear this up for me, id be veryy thankful.
    thanks guys

    Depends entirely on the quality of it's manufacture. Genuine HSV will fit fine. The aftermarket guys quality varies from great to woeful.

    yea you wanna watch out for it. My bumpers looked really good so i bought them and got told they go on a VN but when i put the front one on it sticks out way too far and there's about half an inch gap from the lights to the bumper. Good enough though haha
