    Looks pretty good. But I'd be removing all the badges except for the HSV on the rear garnish as it looks odd with the HSV one right below the Holden one. Much drone with the 3.5 inch exhaust? Oh, you could do with a few more unit stickers too

    does it lose any power through the 3.5" because you would think so being that large? would sound tough though
