Unfortunately I believe it is.
Took me 30 seconds or so to work out why the pic was a fail.


Sure if you got your hands on it for free put it on, but paint over the badge in the middle and colour in the badge on the mudflaps black.

That is so unfair, how come adelaide can't have a carwash full of hot chics for me to perv on? Would save me both the effort of washing my car, and give me something to look at!

Fair enough if it was cheap or whatever, but lose the Holden logos!

Man, this thread has inspired me... theres a guy that goes to my brother's...friends house... stay with me here, It's a BA XR8.. and it looks Identicle to a BF MK II Cobra...

Sounds sweet you say...

My BF MK II XR8.. should not be able to smoke this thing.... i mean, blow its socks off smoke it... 3 car lenghts infront at 80/km , looking back at the BLACK SMOKE coming out of it... thats right, spend all that money doing up the outside, to forget "Hmm, maybe i should do an oilchange , the car has done 50,000km since i did the last one"

will TRY to get pictures... :P

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/09-F-...item3362e4df52

Front looks pretty cool, and I like the idea.
But that rear end looks like it is straight off the local Kangaroo Bus lines mini bus.

By a wide margin this is the best paragraph I've ever read on ebay.

"The lack of reverse also proved problematic when, through no fault of my own, I accidently misjudged a parking space, nudged a bit too far forward and drove through the window of an ANZ bank and straight into the vault. It was terrifying having all those big bags of money falling into the back of my ute, I thought I was going to die or at the least get a sore throat. I didn’t want anyone to make a fuss over me, so I paid some big blokes that were so sensitive to the cold that they even wore balaclavas during spring to get me out of trouble by pushing the ute back onto the street. I drove off looking for a public phone so that I could notify the bank of my misfortune, then I remembered that I had a mobile, but then I forgot why I needed to make a call."
