I'm sure the fitment will be exactly the same. Mine's a 5.7 VXR too.

I assume it’s an 04 plate vxr ? single exhaust ? big boot ? if so i would think so , but not sure, my knowledge better around cv8 than vxrs
I am in the process of taking my straps off to take to the guy tomorrow , i think i’m looking at around 5 sets unless more people come forward , he will probably cost for a set tomorrow and i will post that on here when i know

Yes, that's the one. I would think it is the same layout so willing to take a punt!

The chap has just got back , it will be around 130£ inc shipped which is three straps in stainless steel , it won’t be an exact copy it won’t include the rubber , the rubber can be bought in strips on amazon , he is going on holiday soon so there will be a delay or around 3 weeks , so if you are still up for it please say yeah or mesh , he will do 5 sets , he is going to do a template from my original straps i will test fit and go from there

Just a bump on this post , first come first served re the straps , 5 being made up , three have already been taken , but should not be an issue to make more , the guy doing them had said he will do 5 at a time to save costs to him
