    Default Fitting Caprice/Grange front bar.

    What are the requirements for such a job?

    Hell, where would I even get the kit from?

    I asked Holden and they said I need new mounting brackets or something for the front bar and I would need a new hood and maybe front guards.

    I have seen this done on a ute a wagon and two calais' and it looks freaking badass.

    What Walesy said ^^

    Plus the inserts, grill, fog lamps, wiring, etc.

    Where from? Could go genuine, will cost a fortune. Try looking for rear ended wrecks or google search for anyone who sells them reproduction, seconds, spares or aftermarket. Holmart might sell some of the pieces you need.

    if you need to go genuine, and it would turn out much better if you do, give AMCAP a call in perth, they supply holden/hsv and other car dealers all their geuine parts and basically get stuff at cost price, alot cheaper than holden or holmart
