Lol the clubsport badge is in the correct position on the bottom side skirt is where it's fitted for a series one ve hsv. It's the e3 that have them up on the door. Looks a lot better with the chrome bonnet strip. It's not a dead set replica, it's my version of what I like and what I wanted as to what I think looks good. Chrome on doors,It sets it off in my opinion. Clubsport are white, gts are black and mine is chrome ;)

my 2009 E1 clubsport had the clubsport on the door.

The brakes look great. Really like the fact you didn't go red like everyone else. I tired to find spare logo'd for mine but it looks like I'll need to get some vinyl sticker made up

My decals have been on the brakes for ages now without any sign of fade etc. keeping in mind though, they have a clear coat sprayed over them. If you want the exact type I've got, contact seaton crash repairs on tapleys hill rd ph: 8345 4816, and they mite post them out to you. Not sure if they do them in house or get someone else to make them up, either way you won't be disappointed with the quality of them. Pretty sad that an after market decal lasts forever compared to the genuine hsv logo on the hsv brakes.

too much chrome on the wheels for me
incorrect badges is just silly, when its got a legit hsv build plate, then they'll make sense.
does it have a hsv donk?

other than that, clean work

Wheels I'm changing, badges meh who cares. It's just a badge, not really a big deal what engine it's got.

It doesn't have an engine. It's just a rolling shell
