    Don't bother with the SS reductions kit. Waste of money. Half the price and you can have the standard holden one, which flows the same (and looks heaps better)

    Tuff car either way!

    The VP Calais steering wheel is one of the best stock wheels on a commodore - I'd go with one of them.

    sweeet. very tidy
    Engine cover looks good, but doesnt hide the ugliness of the front of the block which the standard one does. U should spray the cover the same colour as your car, would definetely be worth it.
