    The reason HakHawk said it was I organized for a guy to make custom dash facias for JC members, and the one in MADSAV's car is the one HakHawk designed himself. So its not a case of the guy having the same as him, he really has what HakHawk designed.
    Thank fully mine hasnt been copied yet.

    i can even show u the design i draw up if you like,it sux when people copy other`s designs, just like my idea of having the new monaro bonnet vents and the flutes ,i seen a vn the other day with the 100% design. its not right,it aint fair and i want a refund lol.

    ill design up a new one now, better still im gonna change the whole dash make my own mold out of fibrer glass. whats the bet some will come along and beat me to the punch

    yeh, it does suck when people copy others designs AND claim it as their own, well, send me a copy of your file, email is in my profile, what font did you use for lettering?

    who did it for you? i had HCCA a member on this forum, he runs a ebay shop called speed graphics do mine, it was the first full colour fascia he did. i have the psd file for MY design sitting on my hard drive, layer for layer.

    the other day, i found that VBCOMMODOREGUY has almost exactly thesame, except for the words HOLDEN and CLUBSPORT over it, that one was printed by HCCA.

    can i also get a front on shot showing the entire fascia.

    The dash design is not yours mate so dont try and claim it is.
    As for the bonnet vents and flutes, until you actually do it its nothing more then an idea, and telling everyone on a public forum is very likely to get someone to copy it, not that adding them is an orginal concept at all, hell there is even companys making the VZ CV8 bonnets to suit a VN-VS.

    HEY, i didnt want to upset anybody.but i came up with a design of my own, and i never said that anyone stole my design i said people seem to COPY,i wasnt pointing the finger at anyone, hey if by me doing somthing diffrent come`s with a cost of someone else doing the same or close to the same thing then im happy to know that ive given other`s an idea of what can be and what carnt be done.the only thing i lied about was where i got it done from,i got it done by the same guy on ebay (speedgraphics) or somthing.i told him i wanted a holden sign around the speedo and lightning bolts thorw it, he sent me a pic of what it would turn out liek and i agree`d.
    i drew a shit sketch using windows paint.
    so dont be starting up with me as it seem`s that ,that guy F**ked us both over.

    that looks %100 ripped,
    if he designed it then someones been rippin his design off majourly, its NOT the same as someone having the same as you, its a design a work of art.. im not having a go at madsav, the guy who didnt it shouldnt be distrubuting it in the first place, i mean sure if hakhawk authorised it then fine but OBVIOUSLY he hasnt lol,

    dont get in a fuss mate, i was ok with you having it, im just sick of seeing it in peoples cars now, since i designed it. its not your fault thats what you got, its the ebay guys fault, ive had words with him already, but you started saying that you designed it yourself, ie. the whole fascia, that exact picture, font, etc. thats what it sounded like.

    yeh, you can draw a sketch in paint, thats fine, obviously we had the same taste in what we wanted, just i made that picture.

    there was no need to lie about where you got it from, if you told the truth, i probably wouldve undrestood right away.

    oh, and you were the first to mention any "stealing".

    nuff said.




    Your car is damn sweet, wish mine was that shiny.

    i did not authorise the ebay guy to sell this design, he said he did to shut people up that wanted it, not sure how true this is, or if he was just making money off it, might try for a big discount on a fascia for dads car.

    thanks, yeh, lots of people liked it and wanted it, thats why i asked him not to do any, i paid 80 plus 5 for express postage coz i wanted it quicker. looks like he owes me some money, because he profited from my work.

    Well ay.. When I first did mine, I inspired hakhawk to do his custom design too, and i can honestly say i saw it being done step-by-step. U guys have worked it out now.. But 1 way i realised how to really personalise my facia so no one else could use it was paist my name n numberplate all over it :P

    There is a thread about it how to make ur own.. get out n give it a go, suprise yourself and others! A "custom facia" is there to personalise your car to YOU. so why use someone else's work? Be urself Its not that hard.

    Oh and isn't it "Liquid" not liquard.
