    Default Monaro or walkie bonnet on VR, opinions?

    Hey guys,
    Wanting to get some opinions on different bonnets to suit VR/VS Commodores.
    Had monaro and walkie's in mind but open to other options if anyone has something cool in mind,
    Pictures are always rad as well, trying to make up my mind as to what i want.

    Cheers!

    Because they look stupid on a vr/vs.

    Really? My mistake then, to me it looked like you were splitting hairs...

    Its a two door commodore, which is a monaro, which is FAIL..

    Still think the bonnets look like shit.

    EDIT: It seemed like everyone was referring to the GTO being soley exported to the U.S. as a Pontiac GTO.

    Every car picture posted in this thread is an abortion. Bonnet scoops on any car let alone a commodore are ####en gay. Don't do it everyone will laugh at you. Spend your money on suspension or something that actually makes your car better.

    Please note this is only my opinion, take it as you please...

    There is no such thing as stupid questions, Only stupid people.
