First off, no SR20, sorry! I was driving up the large bridge that connects the two sides of the city when I saw what looked like a G8, but the badges were circular, which was very striking compared to the elongated Pontiac triangle. I didn't notice until it was far from view, so I couldn't get a view from the front!

I know Jalopnik ran !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! article about getting a conversion kit which I'm sure it likely is. I will look for you, and I will find you!

I wouldn't get too excited. Quite a lot of G8 owners in my area swap their Pontiac badges for HSV and Holden badges.

Never thought of doing that before, guess its pretty easy to do. I want to see if they changed the front clip though.

There's one guy in my area that did just that!!!

Changed the badges everywhere and changed front bumper, rear bumper, and side skirts.

The only way you could tell it was a G8 was because he left the "G8" on the boot lid.

Do all that and leave one G8 logo? Way to commit!
