VZ Calais
Does anyone know if anyone makes a Chevrolet Grille for a VZ Calais. There seems to be a Grille for every model of VZ except the Calais. I have been told it is because the Calais was never exported to the States and there is no genuine part for it.

Has anyone managed to get an aftermarket one?

According to my catalogue, Holden doesn't offer a Chev grille for the VZ Calais, but did for the VZ Berlina. Part No. 92162725 for the grille, 92162895 for the chrome escutcheon and 92162726 for the badge.

As the grille opening was the same for Berlina and Calais, (I think), the Berlina grille would do the job for you.

The Chevy badges were made for the Middle East, not the USA. The VZ was never exported to the US, at least not in four door form.

i wonder if they made an V6 alloytech air plenum cover with a chev badge on it? rather then the holden badge? (not that i woud fit it just curious) just like when the VN was sold as a toyota lexcen but still retained GM and holden logos inside the engine bay and on parts

Couldn't you just fit a badge to your existing grill?

Right, the Chev badge argument is to stop now. No bull ****, it's so boring and old it isn't even funny anymore. Let people do what they want to their cars and keep your pathetic comments to yourself.
