    I have a vx executive with executive bumpers.im putting on the front bumper off a v2 monaro.as the monaro is a coupe the side skirts won't fit but are the same as the ss.so I'm using them.i can't seem to find a monaro rear bar and the berlina one looks almost the same so I am thinking of using that

    Monaro rear bar will not fit the Commodores. I know they look identical but the monaro rear bumpers are shorter on the sides when compared to the commodore ones. I have got a VX SS Rear bumper on mine with the monaro front and I think it looks good. Checkout the link in my sig if you wanna have a look.

    If you don't like the reflectors you could just get a VT SS rear bumper.

    Have a look at this thread. This guy got a Monaro rear bumper to fit but had to get a plastic welder to cut the sides off a vx ss rear bumper and weld them on the Monaro bumper to get them to fit. Very expensive but it looks horn

    Mmm i think it will look a bit out of place, only because the SS side skirts dont match up. IMO ud be better off finding either a VX SS rear bumper or a VT SS bumper if you dont want the reflectors.

    How much did the front kit set you back?
