Would it fit? Would it look good? Would it look good with a G8 diffuser and quad tips?
Any other ideas welcome.
Tell me what you think.

Cheers in advance.

you will also need to change the tail lights as well, as the berlina/calais lights are bigger.

I think you'll find that's the whole reason why he's asking. He wants new tail lights..

It comes down to personal preference mate, sure it looks good but it will look weird without the matching front bar/side skirts, in my opinion keep your Berlina a Berlina.

You could get an Omega bar, would fit the lights, it would match the look and you could have quad tips.

Thanks for the replies,
Yea the reason I wanted to change was to get new taillights, I'm spewing that they don't make aftermarket lights for the berlina or calais. If the ss rear bar would look out of place, wouldn't the omega one as well? Or not? Would the G8 diffuser fit the omega bar?

This is a bit drastic for just a tail light change. Especially if you're going aftermarket cheap looking tail lights which in my opinion look horrible.
Each to their own though mate..

Yea it is pretty drastic when ya think about it.. But honestly the berlina lights look putrid! I'd change them to calais lights if it didn't cost me $400

It would probably cost you more then $400 to change your whole rear bar and lights too. I don't know a lot about VE Berlina's but if the calais lights do fit and they're $400 I reckon that would be a much better option. Less messing around...
