    Maybe you don't like them because they are film, not the usual midnight spray?

    Opinion noted though. thanks

    Badges and tail lights ruin it for me, but each to their own.

    Good to see a commodore without gay wheels. Not so good to see yet another commodore with chev badges.

    Front bar and rear badge will eventually be removed for W427 front bar and front quater flutes.

    mean SS. future mods sound good. if it were mine though (if only i had the money.....) , i'd go with a series 1 Senator front bar as opposed to the W427.

    GL with it

    chev badges aren't a "mod"


    apart from that though, i actually don't mind it ... not a fan of tinted tail lights , but it looks ok .... laugh.gif

    there is something about the w427 front bar that looks odd though to me ...
