Nice! You should try to get a Holden emblem for the rear too.

Yea, I'm undecided on what I want to do w/ the rear. The Holden emblem is way to big IMO

Everytime you posted pics of the goat, you convince me that I'm buying a GTO as soon as I'm financially capable.

Absolutely amazing. How much did the conversion cost, and where did you get the front end from?

Hey, If you want HID's, I got a brand new set of McColloch (sp?) for you for cheap. I bought them for my GTO but never put them in. Id sell them to you for $50 +shipping. I paid about $300.

I love the look of the GTO. I don't know why some people think it looks like crap. Believe it or not I have only seen one in my area ever and it was black. It looked very aggressive and bad ass. I would love to have one. Very good bang for the buck and millions of mod's out there for it. Great pics by the way!!!!!!

a little mixed http://www.ls1gto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=137108


They say I need to do the full conversion (wheels, all badges, etc). Which I won't do. For one, i'm not gonna spend $1500 on a new set of 18" wheels that look basically the same and won't allow me to go any wider. Second, the Holdens have a real real gay sidemarker I refuse to do.




"They'd" also like to switch the brake calipers to read monaro instead of GTO; and replace the rear lower valence w/ this:




Along w/ a bunch of other little miniscule shit I'm really not interested in
And frankly, i'm not one to concern myself with others opinions.


I am considering these taillights, but am afraid it'd be to much red:
