HSV Clubsport/Vauxhall VXR8 question

[Scott McDonald]

Anyone know if those fender vents are functional on these cars?

[Crazy Paul]

The vents are open, but not connected to any ducts or anything behind.
So not really functional.

like CP said not functional,but they look great:thumbsup:.

[Scott McDonald]

Well crap on the functionality question. But yes they do look great. Crazy Paul what would it take to put these on a G8? Is that a two piece fender?

[Crazy Paul]

No the HSV fender is made in 2 pieces and then welded to make 1 piece.
Remove Pontiac fender & Install HSV fender.
I have a new set of HSV fenders including vents, repeater lights, badges .... currently in Ohio.
Send me a PM if you are interested.

Sent you a PM. Got any pics of those fenders on a Maverick Silver car?

[Crazy Paul]

These are the only silver pics I have.

does anyone have a set of these fenders for sale or know where i can get a set??

[Greg@PacePerformance]

I think Paul still has a set here in Ohio for sale. If they weren't so expensive I would pick them up.

Paul who i'm new to the forum sorry :-/

Price isn't really an issue

[Crazy Paul]

[Crazy Paul]

Tail lights and the filler caps for above them are ridiculously expensive. I asked around everywhere I know locally in the past 2 weeks and nobody has any used ones.

The tail lights are not very reliable, you'd be taking a risk buying those used.

Interesting. There were some on ebay months back I almost bid on.

Used is probably far less than new...I have access to great electrical skills for repairs...

Keep looking, I'm in no hurry. ;)

[wreckwriter]

I wish mine didn't have anything there. If I could afford it I'd have the area welded over.

One day I'm going to win the lottery, and Paul is going to send me a 2010 Commodore piece by piece to do the right hand conversion.

Hey, a guy can dream.
