    i think they look ok from afar coz they are not super common on vans but kinda look cheapish close up. they dont really match the old skool look. best looking holden ever - HQ coupe. no lips or spoilers in sight!

    I think they do on HZ's as the twin nose doesn't really suit the van body, and the spolier makes them look heaps better. Plus it covers the ugly holes in the apron!
    HQ-HX look better without.

    Something I'm still deciding on. I'm restoring a HJ Sandman Panel Van and I'm really not sure whether or not a spoiler will look good on it. The idea sounds good but in reality, I just dunno. I just dunno....

    Have a look at photos of original HJ GTS's. They had a from air dam and can look OK. I don't think it'll suit a van though. Have a look below.

    Quad headlight front just seems to look better with air dam than the twin headlight front does, despite the HJ having the nicer grill on a GTS.

    Sounds nice, full black HX with HX Portland grey fasia and (hopefully) 60A (chamois black) trim.

    Have a look at the home page and scroll through the pictures:

    Our three HZ vans have and will have spoilers on them, our HX ute won't but we do original and not everyone wants original and likes to custom their vans...
    HZ Jasmine Yellow Windowless Sandman, now being driven everywhere and is finished!
    HZ Madeira Red Windowless sandman now Sold to Bigrob
    HX Mandarin Red Sandman Ute finished, and club registered
    1979 HZ malachite windowless van with 308 5spd, all chromed up and shiny finished and named "The Player"
