hey man,

its just my opinion, but that would look too mismatched.

The WH is all saggy looking where the VY rear is all sharp. Ive seen some VT-VX sedans that have had the VY nose grafted on and its all mis-matched with smooth lines and sharp lines all clashing. Besides after all that panel swapping you may as well buy a VY and put a WK nose on. that would look pretty darn tough!

IF you want a tough look for the VT/VX go the HSV VX Nose kits, the sharper lights still work well with the smooth lines of the sedan and look way tougher than the VT HSV's.

Then put a VX calais tailight/garnish and you'd have one mega sweet cruiser!

Check out sixappeal's ride in the Myrides section to see how damn sweet it looks!

how much you planning on spending on this? Looks like your in for a shitload if your getting new panels aswell? That $30k for the ss might not be that far of :)

The obvious thing is to work out how much its going to cost then look at what else you could be doing with that money.

With the $30,000 thing...I'd buy a VX Calais and change the front to the WH!
