Not wanting to sound dismissive, but does the cost justify the outcome? I'm still confused as to what the required outcome is.
Evoke to SV6?
Evoke to Evoke?
The Clubsport in your profile to Evoke or SV6?
escooter to car?

Indeed.

This thread is one massive communication disconnect.

op has a evoke and wants to make it not look like the evoke.

its pretty much the same as the people that buy the sv6 and then go and bolt on hsv trims, paint the calipers red for +25kw, twin tip mufflers to make it not look like the sv6.

its easier to just buy a zb as it has all of that done already at the factory so it does not look like an opel :p

Aha - that explains the "a vf1/2 bumper and grill"
But what if one day in the future the Evoke is the sought after model, since there's so few of them left that haven't been modified to an SV6?
I'm so confused.

Ive absolutely no doubt im in the minority here and will get kicked for it, but style wise I think the Evoke bumper looks better than the Gen-F GTS's

R8? Brilliant. Senator? Brilliant. GTSR? Brilliant

But that hideous GTS bumper? Just god no.........

GTS has a different bumper to Evoke & SS & Calais?
I mean … intellectually I understand that’s true, but realistically … meh. All looks the same. It’s almost like the differences were engineered just so there were differences, and parts weren’t so easy to obtain …

… I saw an Evoke parked next to our SSVR last week, and said to myself “hey they’re right, there actually is a difference!”.


Back to the original post, I don’t think any of us have worked out what was going on there.
Like, it makes zero sense. What are they after?
Given no follow ups, I suspect too many Bundy & Cokes that night …

That was my take on it.
Since school holidays haven't started yet. (as far as I know).
