why not just do some modifying with the calibra 16v badge?

calibra 16v
calibra v6

i was gonna do it with mine, so i tried it, i put some glue on the back of the letters, dropped the 6 in a pile of dust and gave up and debadged the boot :)

good idea jamesy...ive got the original badges allready but obviously a bit tarnished...mainly the v grill part ,but its chrome plastic lol.


i tell you what...its hard to get parts for these and when you can there pricey,too pricey.the amount of calibras on the road will drop drastically in the next few yrs...hopefully values go up too

:alright:

At-least you can get them, i cant any at all, Holden only have 1 left in stock and its the bonnet badge not the V section.

sad thing is i need the V section and the rear badge which are different sizes to the other calibras... i wish the ones off the one i am wreaking where the right size.
