VN SS boot spoiler onto a VP SS

[hjtrbo]

Hey, does it fit and line up well?

Cheers

[88GreenVN]

Should do - same rear end.

I still have not found Holden's official fitting instructions (where it drill holes)

[STEALTHY™]

Will all fit properly.

Personally i'd keep it as is, but i like my bodykits kept to factory (save for the bonnet scoop haha)

Nice, so grabbing a template or something could be a problem huh?

If one was readily available, Shane would already have one.

My bob tail is still waiting for a template....

[Pub247]

yeah i need one of those too dont want stuff a cgood paint job. I was thinking of getting an old boot and going crazy

[hjtrbo]

SSV do the spoilers so they should have a template, i'm gonna e mail them, I think $50 would be fair. See how we go

And the sides?

New rear 1/4 too haha

[stocky]

ive seen this done to a VP SS. it just didnt look right. didnt match up with the rest of the car and just pretty bad i reckon.

I got a bootlip not a ss spoiler so i dont need the sides done i "assume" that the holes would be the same for bootlip and SS spoiler

You still need to mod the corners of the 1/4s for the bootlip if you want a factory look

Please explain this to me i never realised corners need modding

Be good if there was a picture of one somewhere, before I commit.

[Pub247]

I reckon either go the stock one (they have one right??) or one of those sv ones cant remember which model it is have to check on that

I'll get a pic tomorrow for you. Keep in mind my wording, i chose very carefully - FACTORY look

[Pub247]

Ok i guess by factory you mean it sits flush if thats what your talking about thats the way i want it. I had a good look at a stato on the weekend in the shopping cetnre carpark and it looked mint exactly the way i want mine to look

[hjtrbo]

looking forward to that pic...

You can only see it when the bootlid is open

There like a strapping that is in a triangle on each side of the car. Probably for the lip to rest on and not crack the paint. Pics tomorrow will tell the story.



The reason i said you need to do your 1/4s aswell is because the thread is about VN SS lips, not the Caprice lip.

I have the genuine Holden instructions for a VS Spac boot lip if its any help.

[STEALTHY™]

PICS

[hjtrbo]

whats going on there? Is that that corner mod you were talking about? Is this what has to be done to the VP to get the proper fit of the spoiler side pieces?

Dont know if it would help - I want to avoid doing this:

How not to mount the SS Bobtail

Thats how the VQ Caprice bootlips are mounted from factory (NOT VN SS)

[Pub247]

Ok so i see its just a rubber pad. Not really important to me i doubt you'd could even find them if you tried.

By the way its looking a bit dirty there stealthy atleast i got a cover over mine
