Hey all, Im new here and to owning a Holden. This is my first one 2008 Ve omega 60th anniversary edition. I was wondering if the front and back bars from maybe a sv6 would fit. Honestly i prefer the look of the series 2 sv6 front bar compared to mine at the moment and i have no idea if they will fit on smoothly or may require some mods to fit. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Also any photos of changes you have done to your ve omega is a bonus. I will possibly be thinking about a rear spoiler aswell as im just not use to a boot without one lol.

I will add a photo of my car, i havnt gotten any new ones of her yet besides the rear end shot, as i've only owned her a few days now.

Bumpers are a straight swap if going Series 2 bumper you'll also need to change the head lights

Thanks so series 1 sv6 bumpers are the straight swap that would make sense, glad to know though at least if i want to go series 2 ill need to go headlights aswell. Would it be the the same for the rear?

Tail lights didn't change between series 1 and series 2 just make sure you get the SV6/SS bumper and not a calais/berlina bar as lights are bigger in those

Keep in mind the sv6 rear bar will have provisions for exhaust pipes on both sides where the early omegas only had one outlet.

Thanks, ive owned mostly white cars so to have something that stands out this much its so nice, i feel in love with the colour when i sow it for sale and more so when i sow it in person. Once i wash her and polish her i think its going to stand out so much more but may be a little before i can do that as im pregnant and due to pop any second now haha

When you polish it if you can try make sure you machine polish it. Does so much better job than by hand
