Hi Guys,

Past couple of months I been asking help and questions to clear my doubts regarding a VE GTS conversion. And I am really thankful to everyone on this forum who helped me to get an understanding of what need to be done.

Last week I bought a Red Hot Omega with 100K on clock. I pay $13K and spent $340 for service (it was due), $300 for RWC (one lights was not working and I didn't noticed while I picked the car. A few hundreds for the stamp duty. All around $14K

Car got an 18" black alloy wheels (not holden) with new tyres and SSV spoiler, Chev grill and bow-tie badge. Thats the current mode.

My Plans: HSV E1 front conversion, Side skirts, Lowered to SSL all around with matching shocks, two tone leather interior with HSV embroider, Reverse camera or censor, New custom plates, On the back I am not planning much on this time, just removing the mud flaps, remove the letters "commodore & Omega". leave the chev badge, also put a chev badge on the bonnet. Some audio upgrades:stock one doesn't sound's much good.

What I have done so far is:
Booked for painting the kit for $1550 including some parts and a 3 year warranty on parts, painting & Fitting
Included: Painting, fitting, after market fog lights, genuine HSV bonnet extension, Genuine Clubsport side skirts, wiring the lights and a separate switch, 3 year warranty.

Updates: they charge only $1450 cash

I picked up a used genuine HSV front bar for $230, genuine mesh inserts for $100.

Update : Lowered using SSL kings all around, put 19" HSV wheels on it

Got an Idea on how much the interior and suspension will cost.

Any ideas or thoughts are welcome.
