    Default New model SS badges on older Commodores..

    Ive been seeing alot of these lately, specifically from the VY range on VN/VPs
    my mate bought a VP and it had VY style badges and I said they werent the original since they are a red sticker and bigger, now around perth ive seen quite a few with them on older commodores, seems people are even gettin rid of the original sticker for a newer badge, I reckon it looks shit and doesnt match.
    Do people from your states do this or is this just a WA thing?

    there's a blood orange vnss on the other forum, i think it's vic based and it's got vzss badges, personally i don't think it suits it, but you couldn't do the original sticker kit colours on a car with that colour paint.

    Who cares really? it's not as bad as chev badges on an LS-equipped commodore.

    I'll start flaming people when they are putting SS badges on executives lol

    Last i saw of it years ago, it had VY SS badges. VZ SS are chrome, VY are 'silver'.


    Its not just there, guy i knew had VY SS badges on his VN SS (with the decal kit removed) more than 4 years ago.
