Hi all, I've just purchased my first HSV, a Monaro VXR LS2 in phantom black biggrin This beast is awesome. I have a couple of questions that maybe you'll be able to help with:

- I'm missing the plastic ring that sits around the rear fog light on the back bumper. Does anyone know a cheap way to pick one up? I'm not having any luck finding one online from Aus or the US

- I'm thinking about whether a ripshifter is worth while. I think I read somewhere that the shifter on my particular model had been improved from earlier models. Has anyone got any first hand experience of swapping to a ripqshifter on the LS2?

To answer your other question: the VXR has a shorter gear stick then that on a CV8 but the shift will be vastly improved with the rip shifter, it's a great modification.

If you already have an exhaust, then the rip shifter is a good next step (on a very slippery slope) smile
Thanks, have you tried the vxr ls2 both before and after with a ripshift?
