    Not a huge fan of the stand up badge but yeah fog lights and clear indicators would be good.

    Plus you run the risk of it getting snapped off by someone.

    True, being a weekend car though it rarely gets left anywhere that is out of my sight so I should be ok.

    I might get one some day but for now I am happy without it.

    Yeah, they are getting expensive, and getting harder to find

    Saw a brand new VR garnish and tail lights still in box from holden a few months back for $1200.....seems a little extreme.
