2008 VE SS Manual
Hey guys,
So for a while now I've been wanting a rear wing for my VE SS that is a bit more of a statement piece than the stock. I've considered putting on an HSV wing as it is a bit taller and has slightly more aggressive styling, but I really want something even taller. I'm honestly surprised that HSV didn't offer any models with a more extreme rear wing. I've considered going down the path of an obnoxious carbon fibre 'GT' wing but they're all pretty ricey looking. I've always admired the styling for the rear wing on the newer gen WRX STIs so I was wondering if you could fit one to a VE. I made a photoshop rendering of what it might look like, but bear in mind that I am a complete novice at photoshop and therefore it doesn't look the best. Let me know what you think of how it looks, and has anyone else been feeling the same way about the VE wings? Has anyone fitted an aftermarket factory style wing to their VE? Cheers

I think it's hilarious that you think a GT wing would look "ricey" but you think a WRX wing will look good.
It's an emphatic no, from me.

I'm not......there is a valid reason why they didn't.

It's also a No from me.

Possible but probably difficult due to the different shapes and widths of the boot, the Commodore is wider so the wing is likely to be narrower than in your picture. Also, the Subaru and Holden colours won't be the same, so you'll have two different shades of white if you try to buy the same colour.
