“We’ve enjoyed so
ome great success with
h limited ediition sports models likee the G8-ins
spired
Holden SS V-Serie
es Special Edition,
E
and
d we learnt from
f
what our
o customeers told us –
understtated sportss styling elements like tthe slimline boot lid spoiler were rreally well re
eceived.
“And evven though we’ve taken
n a more su
ubtle and luxurious stylling approacch to VF
Commo
odore sportss models, we’ve
w
create
ed new acce
essory optio
ons like coloour-matche
ed grille
surroun
nds and fend
der vents, 20
2 inch alloyy wheels wiith high perfformance tyyres, track stripes
s
and factory-fit full size wing spoiler for customers who really want dial up the volume of their
car’s appearance.”
While the accessories are designed to look good, they also undergo rigorous engineering
testing to cope with Australia’s unique environment and road conditions.
Holden Engineering Manager for Accessories Keegan Brown said all genuine Holden
Accessories go through exhaustive durability testing to ensure their longevity and quality.
“We understand our customers’ cars are their pride and joy. Protecting the condition of their
asset is very important to them, which is why we’ve developed new accessories to help
customers maintain the showroom condition of their VF Commodore,” he said.
“For example, Holden’s three-piece sports armour is a kit that is fixed to the front fascia to
protect it from every day wear and tear like carpark and kerb damage.
“And we know it will stand the test of time because we’ve exposed it to hundreds of ramp
strikes and high speed durability testing to ensure that the product will continue doing its job
for years to come.
“Our track stripes are also carefully designed to ensure UV protection and long term weather
resistance so they’ll look as good as the day you bought them.”
