Saw this the other day as it flew past in the other direction. Managed to get some photos of it today though. Looks awesome I think, suits the kit just as well as it suits the falcon

I wonder if it was an ex QLD ute?
I remember seeing a yellow maloo with bulge at a show in brisbane that had fitted a bulge to gain some clerance for a supercharger... But it looks great, there is a company making the bonnets, but i can't recall the name. there is a nice candy apple purple VU2 running round witha bulge as well.

If it's on a Ford, it's a Bulge. On a holden it's a "CAMEL TOE". Let's get it right fella's.

These opposition guys always seem to be stealing things from Fords.
9 inch diffs, top loaders, shaker scoops, twelve slotters, and now bulges! What do we ever want from them?

I must be the odd one out, I dont like it. The lines on the bonnet are too strong and pronounced and the buldge too smooth IMO. I definitely prefer the Monaro scoops on the Holdens.

Someone should stick a ford oval on the side when he's not looking :

Ive seen a couple of dunnydores with the bulge.Makes me laugh course there trying to make them look like the falcons:-)I dislike them on holdens. If you want a bulge buy a ford XR and ford didnt make the bulge for looks,its there so the big boss will fit under the hood :-D

It looks good but for gods sake, why use one that looks exactly like the one off a BOSS Falcon!!
I just don't understand these Holden people :

I like it as well, I think it does look good with the bulge. But just another Holden owner wishing he had the ford after he got the holden ha ha .....
