GT-610 04-23-2008, 06:32 PM 175 for just that one strip????
Am I missing something????
Looks great though!!
Mnnblk09 04-23-2008, 06:40 PM even $ 99 for that chrome strip is too much...............
Attorneyguy 04-23-2008, 07:55 PM Look awesome!
But price...
SRG963 04-23-2008, 08:07 PM is the wing included? :D
tjccpa 04-23-2008, 09:06 PM Reminds me of am Impala with the chrome strip accross the back. I'll pass.
Rob Moser 04-23-2008, 09:15 PM I did the same thing with a piece of silver tape. $1.75 Of course, my G8 is white and the chrome/silver wouldn't really show up anyway. Now... if I had a BLACK one... might be worth it.
_G8GT_ 04-24-2008, 01:13 PM What is the point in that strip exactly? :s
pointless.

About the same as you bothering to post what you posted.
jsalbre 04-24-2008, 01:32 PM I think most here would be more interested in dechroming their windows, rather than adding chrome to the trunk. How about a cost for the black window trim?
Chrome should be reserved for Harleys, semi trucks and 1950's Buicks.

Zaphod B 04-24-2008, 02:24 PM Zaphod's opinion is that that simple chrome strip on the back looks nice. It adds a touch of jewelry to a rather plain back end.
(Not $175 nice, but nice nevertheless! :D )
Zaphod B 04-24-2008, 02:25 PM I'll give you $25 for it. :p
Urthman 04-24-2008, 03:09 PM is the wing included? :D
I like that wing too.
Rt66er 04-24-2008, 03:40 PM http://www.jhp.com.au/pontiac_g8_exterior2.php
That's nice; I like it. Of course, I'm guessing that $587 cost would grow to about $1,000 with shipping :banghead:
G8>550i 04-24-2008, 04:20 PM Looks nice makes the rear more elegant...but $175...isn't it just plastic?
_G8GT_ 04-24-2008, 04:58 PM About the same as you bothering to post what you posted.
:nono:Ok that was uncalled for I was only asking a question.
but if its the same as what I posted then... pointless?

Ha! Sorry, I couldn't help myself. I was really bored at work. LOL
But, it's obviously an aesthetic piece. So it's not necessarily pointless if you like the way it looks. ;)
_G8GT_ 04-24-2008, 05:36 PM :slap:lol na probs. I get what u mean.
GT-610 04-24-2008, 08:18 PM funny how the sponsor has yet to reply...
SilverFox 04-24-2008, 08:43 PM It's good to have the options ;)
DuBob 04-24-2008, 10:03 PM Gosh, they must think we are Corvette owners for a price like that. ;)
asylum 04-24-2008, 10:12 PM it does make the area around the number plate lights look neater too :D
the area that attaches is actually larger than the visible strip itself, hence the price
Solrac 04-25-2008, 12:25 AM lets talk about that wing, how much?
HSV GTS 04-25-2008, 12:47 AM That's nice; I like it. Of course, I'm guessing that $587 cost would grow to about $1,000 with shipping :banghead:
The black out around the side windows can be shipped to southern california for the $587, then shipping cost from CA to ?
Monaro@JHP 04-25-2008, 12:50 AM funny how the sponsor has yet to reply...
I'm not sure what kind of reply you are expecting.
And we are actually closed until Monday too.
Gosh, they must think we are Corvette owners for a price like that. ;)
This option is coming from $80,000 in USD vehicle. It's a molded piece, chromed specifically designed to perfectly fit the trunk lid. I am sorry it's not in your price range.
jsalbre 04-25-2008, 12:52 AM Hmm, I think I'll just figure out a way to de-chrome it myself. $600+ is a bit much for plastic window molding, even if it is coming from Australia.

Looks great though!!
That is the negative size of having a newly introduced vehicle.. Supply and demand. If you think that is bad, never get a vette because you will be seriously unhappy shelling out the cash for appearance mods :banghead:
HSV GTS 04-25-2008, 01:08 AM lets talk about that wing, how much?
The SS-V spoiler is about $615 painted & delivered, or about $100 less unpainted, there is also a smaller SV6 spoiler or the HSV Senator lip spoiler both available from JHP.

HSV GTS 04-25-2008, 01:49 AM Look awesome!
But price...
Its nice to have options, some people say that spending $30K on a car is to much, but price...... I suppose you get what you pay for when you buy genuine parts.

I'm gonna have to save up some duckets to pick one of those up.
To install one I'm assuming you have to remove the lip spoiler on the GT. Does that leave holes on the trunk lid?
G8lover 04-25-2008, 10:18 AM i like^, time to start saving even more.....
J Wikoff 04-25-2008, 07:50 PM Its nice to have options, some people say that spending $30K on a car is to much, but price...... I suppose you get what you pay for when you buy genuine parts.
Maybe you get what you pay for when shipping doesn't double the price.
Monaro@JHP 04-25-2008, 08:19 PM Maybe you get what you pay for when shipping doesn't double the price.
it doesn't on that item. It's a relatively small item and regular postal services can be used. Just low production items for upscale cars tend to cost higher.

Yes when you fit the SV6 or SSV spoiler the G8 lip has to be removed and the trunk will need the G8 spoiler holes filled or you can just add color coded plugs.
VENOM 05-01-2008, 07:47 AM I think the piece looks awesome, but after shipping it will be a little expensive and I would rather put that towards something else. Very nice though :)
