Saw a guy down here in MD. Nice looking G8 (I assume GT as it wasnt a manual) and it had nothing but a V badge on the back left.

Didn't have anything to do with this did it?



I actually wouldn't mind swapping out my V's for those holden V's. It wouldn't make any brand sense per se, but they look good.

My emblem on the back is faded & the sides are starting. That Holden badge would look good on there.

You're right, there's definitely a car in that picture. It appears to be white.

The holden badges are smaller than the V flags. I replaced all three because the flag colors were fading and coming apart. The Holden badges were cheaper than stock replacements.
The red is brighter than the Redline as well, by a touch... still not sure If I like them.
yes I know brand differences... but not like them guys that slap on snakes on their GTs type thing.

I was crusing by a gas stations pumps the other night. Saw a kinda-ok looking older gal with a new Mustang with snakes on the side. "Oh damn, that mama's got a hot ride!" I then saw as she was pulling out... single exit exhaust, quiet as a mouse... not even a GT. Tsk Tsk.

They do not come in black, they are badge for the holden.
They came from JHP Enhancements down under. I just called and had them sent slow and cost effective.
