Any help as to where i could find one of these for my vt would be great as i have called every wrecker in the area with no luck as i thought, is there a cheap non genuine/genuine alternative.
No offense mate but I don't think 'cheap' and 'VZ Monaro' belong in the same sentence. Those bars will be rare as and expensive to get.
I think your best bet will be to get a Monaro fibreglass bar to suit the VT.

nah, cruise ebay
after i bought my one for fark all I saw at least 3 cv8z bars go for around the same... the lights cost a fortune and so does the fogs and grilles
but i have a bar and a set of aftermarket cv8z lights in my garage right now... i don't think i'll bother with the grille and fogs... i'll just mesh it up
you are better off waiting for a second hand plastic one, fibre glass is crap i know from experience

wont you have to swap the whole front end over to a fit a VZ monaro bar?
Barsby spares mate, i dont know em, never bought from em, but there close i think for you, and have a lot of commadore stuff google em.. seriously --- more then likely got what your after they specialise in commadore wrecking along the coast..
Not at all, i have seen a load on ebay as little as $100-$200
A genuine one from holden is only $390 as i found out today, and fibre glass is crap and no body makes a fibre glass VZ monaro bar as the genuine one is identical, the other monaro vt bar looks like ass IMO.
Also a VZ monaro bar Fits straight onto a VT without modification other than the lights.
Im not going a genuine grill but i will be installing the fog lights.
I think i may just buy the genuine one its alot cheaper than i expected from holden, although the lights are a killer at $300 ea, looks like the standard vt lights will be staying in until i can source some cheapies.

its not and you need a vin and it helps if you're a smashie... it was up around $1,200...
Ring holden and ask $390 for a 2005 VZ monaro front bar in primer, ring any holden dealership and ask.
sunco holden part no. 92163608 - $420 in primer ring them and ask if you dont beleive me lol
Phone number 5456 8000
Many ways to get a vin number, go on ebay and find a vz monaro, vin is there for you![]()
Take it easy...But do take it...

Some people take me the wrong way, Like smacking up Marijunna.
holy crap! thats damn cheap for such a nice looking bar. vx clubsport bars are ^$1000 and dont look as good
i have the bar off this:
cv8z
isn't this what we're talking about?
Yes that exact bar $420 in black primer i was told, asuming he is meaning black gelcoat.
Genuine VZ 2005 monaro front bar, no foggies or grill obviously, ordered this afternoon from sunco holden.
Here is the other bar people may be thinking of, but i really dont like it, will go cheap on ebay but i cant bring myself to buy it.
HOLDEN MONARO CV8 FRONT BUMPER BAR VT/VX HSV LS1 | eBay
that bar looks fine IMO
but it is a bit plain but the plus side is you can reuse your lights and the fogs you can use generics from supercheat
