well i ended up being able to byt the Xi verada grill... ( haha asa some of u would have a sigh of relief about:P )

anyways i LOVE IT pics r night time and r a little unclear but u get the idea ... what u think ? better than the stock one and altera one i had on my car ?

oh yes btw i know ive been saying my stockies will be gone for ages now ... but i paid for new rubber a month ago and still havnt recieved the last 2 tyres ( though if u was getting potenza's in 18's 235's for 40 bux each u wouldnt complain neither :P )

Hi, looks great but somehow the grille doesnt seem to make it sportier. Its just a personal peference , I just kind of feel that the old style seems more aggressive looking. this grille might had been my choice as I want to look more luxury sedan, and especially it goes well with my black body. I choose the original but chrome style as I knid of like the aggressiveness look.

Hey but overall still looks good man!

:stoopid:

i like the TH grill a lot
not a big fan of chrome

but each to their own...

wheres are the back rims?

worse

i like the TH one. Get a chrome TH one, rather than a verada one.

if not, get a set of para's :cool:

Please put the old one back in and put the Rims on the rear.. Its not a RWD...
FWD cars need the Rims on the Back wheels and the Stock ones on the front for it to look proper and not like some wannabe falcodore..

This problem needs to be addressed and a daytime shot of the Grille needed

Chrome looks cool but looks a little " holdenish "

DEFINATLY put the old one back on...

ruins the whole look of your car...

do it quickly, before to many see its current state.... :|

I don't think its THAT bad.. lol. It's a different look, and I think it looks okay, I'm more into the TH grille but your car looks alright with the chrome one I reckon. But maybe it's not fully suited style wise.

iactually prefer it. Take some decent shots, the current ones arent doing it justice.

Ive always liked the Verada grill.. adds class.. Big improvement on the old one.. but as some people have said, the chrome TH looks sportier if thats the look youre going for..

Definately dont put the old one back on though :P

its not all about looks and doing burnouts mate... doesn't it make more sence to put the better wider tyres on the driving wheels? i don't see it as a problem:nuts:

everyones gotta used to looks great, the bottom vents need to be chromed now and ffs put the wheels back on now thats looks sh#thouse

like the grill but dosnt go with ur front bay. prob if u get a VRX front bar it would look shmick. if ur gonna put the old grill back on can i buy the verada grill of ya. lol. thought id offer befor ne 1 else.

looks good mate, much prefer it over the old one

But it just looks wrong... Like so many VL commodores you see crusing around...
Stocks on front always " Looks Better" and would it not be smarter to save the good Rubber or by the time he gets the others ready he will need new fronts again..

functionality > looks imho in this case

i think staying on the road is more important that "saving" the good tyres..

I like this grille better:

wats the deal with that grill. is it jus a normall grill with black mesh or sumting. looks nice.

I believe it's a TH grille that has been modded (centre divider removed), cleaned up with fibreglass or some sort of body filler and meshed.

some one get a Grille " How To " done as that one looks way cool...

mmm i wouldnt mind doin that to mine. but how would i get rid of the center bit. it will be pretty hard to get a proper cut so its all flush and neat.

I do like that the old grill was nicely colour coded - it fitted in nicely. However, as others say, you do need some properly lit pics of the new one to do it justice.

looks like an overgrown lancer with that grille! :doubt:

ruins it IMO

haha its funny


in my fist thread i ever posted up everyone was like get a verada grille .... second thread everyone said the altera grille looked **** and verada grille would look the part haha now everyone pretty much says it looks better stock hahah

i love it the way it is :D

in regards to the tyres as i said b4 its a FWD id rather have the 235's on the front than the back. the back tyres had wire hanging out of them .. i now have new tyres just waiting to be fitted .

By the time you get the new Tyres fitted, your fronts will now need replacing... If it was me I would have put the stockies on the front so that the 235's would have been spared, unless you do frequent Hand Breakies !!

no i dont do handbreakies in my car .... im dsorry im not abundant in money i could only afford to buy 2 new tyres not a whole set .....

ive just saved enough to have a whole new set ... back rims on wednesday:D

I await the New Grille photo's complete with a full set of those sexy rims !!!

lol dont hold ur breathe i have no camera :P ... only pics i have of my car are ones randoms ppl take of my car :( lol

By the time you get the new Tyres fitted, your fronts will now need replacing... If it was me I would have put the stockies on the front so that the 235's would have been spared, unless you do frequent Hand Breakies !!

And how the hell different will it be if he has them on the front or rear as Jamie does not go around doing burnouts???

If you bothered to look he asked about the grille not his tyres, if he wants advice on tyres I am sure you are the last person he will ask.

BTW Jamie, I like the verada grille, has a lot more class.

WOW! great job on the grille! look absolutley magnificant!! suits the car to a treat.

was thinking bout doing something similar to a TR or a TS grille to suit my TS... but all in good time

once again great job! :D

yeah i like the Verada Grill, i might have gone with the colour coded plastic, and chrome inner (i think thats the standard Verada?) still gotta neaten up that lower vent area thingy up a bit and get some parabolics! i think it does look a lot more expensive with that grill :D

yeah i wanna get the lower vents back to black and get the tip of the vents dipped in chrome .... but thats way down the list

yeh, cos fronts only last a month :nuts:

dont have digi cam go to dick smith and buy one only 60 bucks :bowrofl: i had one for two years never missed a beat

I like it :D

But thats just me :)

Looks good.. Atleast ur bar is straight.. :P

lol has the front bar ever not been straight ? lol

A better quality shot would obiously make the decision easier but first impressions....


:thumbsup:

The Verada chrome grill makes the grill stand out, being a different brighter colour to the rest of the car. The standard grill being the same colour, blends in more and breaks up the grill area (its not one almost solid set of chrome). I know I'm stating the obvious there, but next time you see a KH verada coming towards you, notice how the the grill makes the bonnet line look like an arc (upwards) rather than a straight line across the car. To me its no the chrome that looks ****e, its this illusion. It makes the car look a lot more luxury than beefy.

The sportiest grills are the colour coded ones like you already have with the mesh IMHO. Personally, I hate my Xi grill.

But on the other hand, I'm a pimp. :2cool:

lol has the front bar ever not been straight ? lol


Relax.. it wasnt aimed at you.. just two females with TH`s and they both have Parras and one has that grille.. looks sweet mate.. both there front bars are sitting an inch back under the grille..

Bloody woman drivers... :nuts:

lmao actually come to think of it my front bar has been VERY crooked at one stage ... ( head on with 4wd :( ) LOL doh

yeah i wanna get the lower vents back to black and get the tip of the vents dipped in chrome


yeeaahhhh that would look way better!

lmao actually come to think of it my front bar has been VERY crooked at one stage ... ( head on with 4wd :( ) LOL doh

Must be standard on all TH`s.. :bowrofl: :bowrofl:
Like i said.. bloody woman drivers.. :bowrofl:

hahaha nah i think the women just have good taste and get TH's :P

hahaha nah i think the women just have good taste and get TH's :P

Thanks for the support :)

Aint my fault the bar is warped.. bought it that way :P

And the other female has a TE..

So get your facts straight before you diss us, EGO :P

Pfft.. its all the same.. Yeah right.. u woman are good at blaming someone else..

Pfft.. its all the same.. Yeah right.. u woman are good at blaming someone else..
true true!!!!
oh my god.............................i need a herron... no nurofen.....

Looks good _stonesour_. But you really need to sort out the lower grill as it is really out of place.

Looks nice as mate. Wish my front looked like that... it use to be nice and smooth till my mum reversed her magna executive wagon into it! tobar went straight into the licence plate leavin a nice dint in da front of ma car!

I think it looks awesome champ. Its good to see people out there doing mods to their magnas even if they are just small cosmetics items. Looking forward to coming over to adelaide very soon. If you want i can catch up with you and take some pics seeing you dont have a camera of your own.

Once again, looks tuff
:D

i think it will look much better in person

your comparing a good qual pic to a **** quality pic....this will influence your decision

gimme your camera and ill go take better quality pic :P lol

I like the verada grill, looks good.

gimme your camera and ill go take better quality pic :P lol

Let's settle this, pop over on the weekend and we will take some proper pics mate

Nice pics... I actually like both for differing reasons but the new grille does look classier!

The low quality photos didn't do it justice... I'm still with my opinion of paras, but as you said... Much better things to do witht he dosh ;)

Still looking good though :D

It is a better pic but I think I still like the other grille for the sports look as it blends in well with your body kit. This one looks classy yes but not sporty.

Sorry about the quality of the pics (a bit blurry) :(

anyway, I love the grill!
it looks so much better in person.
It really suits his body kit/style of his car! :thumbsup:

Ah...then you did the right choice. I nearly went for this chrome grille but settled for this one currently.

I THINK THEY BOTH LOOK GOOD ,SO REALLY IF YOUR HAPPY WELL DONE. :cool:

caps dude caps lol

very nice, all it needs now is chrome vents down the bottom and it will look schmikco. defiantly suits the colour of your car

Its fine the grille. Just need some parras.

hey its alright but what does my opinion matter

does look a bit like a lancer
