Paul,
I actually measured the Arrowhead badge posts for the numbers I PM'd to you. It was dark when I measured last night and G8 was away from our house lights.
I just re-measured to the outside of the holes in the bumper.
The width of 1 3/4inchs (44.45mm) is correct, but because the holes are elongated in the bumper, the correct length is 3 3/4 inches (96.25 mm). To easily cover them, one would need a slightly larger width and length.
G8 needs de-bugafying and a serious bath! Red splotches all over. Looks like a teen with zits....
Great classic Holden pix!

Paul,
What's the smallest diameter "new" Holden emblem available for any vehicle?
The smallest I can think of is the 65mm dia round lion off the VS Commodore ('97 era). The next smallest I can think of are the 70mm round lions off VT-VZ ('98 to '2006).
But if you hear of a guy arrested at the biggest Holden caryard in Perth, while armed with a digital camera and a set of plastic verniers.....on Sunday morning 28th.....well someone come and bail me out.
Any updates Paul? R u there? Did you get arrested? J/K.......... hope not though.

Nope no updates, it's a 3 day weekend here so not much is happening today either.
The only other small Holden logos I can think of come on keyrings and tie clips, cuff links etc.
front badge
Has anyone come up with a neat front badge to replace the arrowhead and cover all three holes at the same time?
I have been looking all over for a solution to this due to changing out to Holden badges and still can't find a badge to cover all holes.
I guess I may be asking too much here but I'm sure there are alot more of you looking into this as well. I just don't think I'm ready to go the bodywork way to fill them just yet...lol
Thanks All.
