I installed some Holden V8 badges on my car, one on each front fender and one on the trunk. I got them on Ebay for around $30 shipped, good deal considering they came from the land down under.

Miranda here's the seller I bought them from, the amount is in Australian money and will be reduced when you send the Paypal payment. It comes out to around $10 shipped US funds for each badge and takes a couple weeks to get them.

Nice create idea about basketball basket with no board on it from 2nd picture. That's gotta be hard to aim the ball with no "smooth" board lol

No black wheels for my G8, YUCK!!!!!

Patrick when you're as good as me, you don't need a backboard. Actually I have in in the garage, but I'm too lazy to put it up, lol

I like silver wheel on your red G8. Black sound don't look good. It look like steel wheel. IMO

lol noticed the wood line? If you are under the basket to shoot the ball. It will knock off to aim you back on your head :lol:

Black chrome might look good if it wasn't too dark, like my smoked tail lights.
