look at the paint code on your compliance plate. that number corrisponds to the name of the paint you have. a guy i used to work with twin turboed his 5.7L cost $16K
I've only seen 2 VR or VS Calais' in red (can't remember what either were, as they both look identicle besides the badges.
One was a V8, and one was a V6.
Its pretty rare for Holden to build a luxury model in Red, for any era.

anything can be done. No i don't think it will look good, but i only like model specific parts when it comes to bumpers/sideskirts. VN on VN - VP on VP etc
