you are really showing quite a bit of ignorance.

I liken it to ignorant arrogance.

Holden badging was available as a (low-cost but not free) option when you bought your new Chevrolet SS. *edit* Which I see you've discovered already! /*edit*
Along with Holden branded sill-plates to replace the Chevrolet ones ... also, I'm not sure whether Chevrolet branded floor-mats were available, but they could order the Holden ones; same with mud flaps, the boot^D^D^D^Dtrunk organiser, and the plastic trunk-liner had Holden logos when sold in the US. I'm sure there was other stuff too, such as headlight protectors & I'm not sure if the window weather-shade things have Holden logoes?
They must've decided it wasn't worth getting such a small batch of those things made - especailly if some buyers were paying extra for Holden badging anyway.

Just read the same thing....interesting. I would not have thought Holden was even a thought in the US.

Ignorant yes; arrogance no. My ignorance lead me to believe there were no Holden badges in the US....your arrogance got you here.

.....your arrogance got you here

The facts, and your denial thereof, got us here.

There are a few American members on this forum that have converted their rides back to Holden,

yep every second person in chevy ss owners on fb is doing it

Badging? . . . . potaytoes/potartoes. . . . . All I know is that bow-tie badges make them go faster!

Gday Gents;

Had my Redline for just under a year now; blue in colour which I think is Slipstream ?
Anyway how good are they ?
Just wanted to ask one thing and let you know one thing.

Firstly; had a whine in the rear on idle and when radio off and cruising it sounded similar to a rubbish diff prior to the addition of banana skins....(old school sorry); anyway could not find a thing on here that anyone else had experienced; so when I took to Holden they checked it and fixed it....it was some valve or something in the Bi Modal exhaust....on the receipt it said “carried out TL 16-H-0037 FIX”.... just wanted to let all know.
It did get me thinking though; I do the “pull the relay switch thingy trick” to keep it open always.....could it be reaping a little havoc with the computer ?

Also if anyone has any knowledge they are willing to impart of upgrades (like these Walkinshaw things I see; but don’t hear good things about) alternative to that and best place to go in Sydney....preferably Sth or North West but willing to go anywhere for the right dudes to do the right thing that does not eat my engine prematurely.....not looking for a weapon that’s lights the tyres every second but just a little more punch and sound....
