I've noticed a few of you guys also have 04 to 06 GTO's.
Parts prices for GTO's seem to be climbing still.
The few small items that I've checked lately have been cheaper to buy in Aus and individually airfreight over to USA.

examples: Wheel caps, badges.


Here's another option for badges, maybe on engine covers on a G8-GT
These are Satin silver, not chrome.

Normally they go here on a GTO

Or you can get a 5.7 and a 6.0 badge, graft them together to make a 7.0 badge.

HSV decals (I can get these for about US$10). Normally they go on the rear window. 160mmW x 75mmH

I don't know if anybody has bought one and tried it on a G8 in USA.
I just saw these on ebay.com.au yesterday and thought maybe there'd be an interest from you guys.
Here's the listing on Aussie e-bay with all the details.

I don't know if that guy will ship to USA or his fee for that.
If I bought it and forwarded it on by airmail to USA.
I'd estimate US$40 delivered.
