Not milled, cast alloy. Had to sacrifice my original badge to have it done.

Another update on the Commodore badge.

The rear Commodore badge is pretty much done. Looking to get my hands on about 10 of these (maybe more).
Here's a few pics - let me know your thoughts

Top one is the original





If anyone is interested let me know. PM me here or better yet send me an email at sle881 (at) hotmail.com

Price will depend on how many people are interested but I've been told to expect about $150-$170


I'm also looking at getting my hands on the following so the badges all match.

Boot SLE badge
Boot lock Holden badge
Commodore front bar badges
Front grille Holden and SLE badges
SLE steering wheel badge

Also trying to get the chrome internal door latch and door lock surrounds

Not in the market for any but they look great. Hopefully you get enough interest to a run or two of them.

Took the car out with my wife and 3 year old on Saturday. First time they went in the car and they loved it.

Saturday night I went for a drive and met up with a few guys that are trying to start a monthly meet in Rydalmere, NSW.


It's called "Chrome 'n' Hardware"

It's a gathering of all old school muscle with the exception of early 80's Falcoms and Commodores and such.
At this stage it looks like it will be a monthly event (3rd Saturday of every month) at the McDonalds/Bunnings on Victoria Rd Rydelmere.

I'll post a reminder for the next one if anyone is interested.

Here's some of the cars there on the night next the the VH

Just an update since I last posted.

I finally managed to get the Commodore boot badge and matching SLE one. they turned out mint!


I'm supposed to be getting the Commodore from bar badges too but am not holding my breathe. Been waiting for a year now.

Also got myself an early Christmas gift.

It's a 4pot set up that runs VL Turbo rotors meaning my standard SLE rims will fit over them!
The Wilwood decal has a small nick in it unfortunately from shipping :(
