I've been doing some research about the car's history, and I found something interesting - Some parts were not original.

I mean, the parts were made for VE chassis, but it is not in the right trim and the market.

First, the headlights - It was from the VE Commodore (AU) base model headlights, which doesn't include the projection lights.



So I replaced it with the OEM Pontiac G8 lights for V$ 250.

Second, it was the single-pipe mufflers from the base line VE Commodore, which was the main reason why the V6 engine didn't sound like it used to be.



Those were also replaced to OEM G8 twin-pipe mufflers.

Fun Facts : Australian G8s were transported to Korean GM Facility in Korea for US delivery. *LINK*



- V$ 250 (Lights)

- V$ 250 (Mufflers)

Total V$ 5100
