Badging

[Paul.H.]

Have just had an interesting conversation with Mark from LSV & he tells me that LSV do a Holden badging kit, including front & rear lions, sill plates, centre caps for the wheels Monaro badge for the side (x2) AND a sticky badge for the centre of the steering wheel - all for around £70-ish...I've just paid that for the caps & sill plates direct from Oz so it's a real good deal for anyone who's having trouble sourcing these bitz!

I'm desperately trying to find some large oval shaped Deisel badges for my SS

Once you start, you just can't stop. I ended up doing this.

Paul.......are your badges Holden Lions or HSV lion and helmet ??
If you look on HSV's web site the Auz version comes with HSV badges on the GTO and signature coupe.
I have to say I think the lion and the globe looks better.

I picked up a whole HSV GTO badge kit (exterior only) for someone on here and it wasn't cheap in OZ dollars. Be interesting to see pictures of that car.
70 pounds sounds ok. As mentioned before it is the Holden hubcaps that cost the most. Pretty sure that HSV hubcaps are cheaper. However a HSV badge puts a Holden hubcap to shame.
Paul H. , I will try and confirm that other wheel cap number you mentioned in another thread. I have a feeling it might be the same part in disguise used on the SS sedan. Also see if it cheaper.

Hi Neil - sorry for the delay...just got back to sand land...all the Holden badges/logos are the Lion/Globe kind...lion & helmet, I think, is the logo for Holden Racing Team isn't it? Not sure! As soon as I can (Apr!) I'll get some pic's taken & posted on here!

I can't remember the Pt number I used but I'd like to see the difference in the two!

jimb0 - how'd you do that then?

[habitualvoyeur]

If you go on the HSV web site www.hsv.com.au you can see
pictures and video of the GTO (monaro VXR) and signature coupe
complete with HSV badges (lion and the helmet).
The GTO has a nice "LS2 HSV 6.0L" badge where our Vauxhall badge is/was on the boot lid.
(if you watch the video of the blue GTO they keep zooming in on it)
Has anyone painted their bumper inset bits black as on the signature coupe?? - cool ??

Regards Neil

Pay Chris White (www.whiteautoandmedia.com/Content/programming.aspx) to do it for you. The shipping costs each way make the price prohibitive unless you're mad like me

It may be that TECHII can do it, but I ran into a dead end on my research on that.

Yes TECH2 can do that. I had mine changed to Chevrolet but changed it back again as I couldn't switch off the speed alert for some reason!

The other number you put up on the other thread are nearly half the price. They are supposedly off a HBD or anniversairy wheel. I still haven't seen one though!
