There is a guy named Greg Hunter on the G8 owners page on Facebook who brings these over regularly and converts them and sells them. He could probably answer any questions you have. He can be somewhat of a dick on Facebook but I think it's an act and he is really an ok guy. Good luck with your new project!

Where is he from? We have done a **** load of research on this project, only 2 guys I heard of that are importing them. Our guy and another in Colorado. However I'm not on Facebook or a G8 site.

He's from Arizona. He actually just posted pictures yesterday of one of his shipments. It was 2 or 3 sea containers being unloaded of several Utes and aussie only parts.

Ok cool, I'll check him out.
This is one that's finished... Wheels are done in plasti-dip because he's a Panthers Fan, they are normally silver.

I saw this about two weeks ago outside of your shop. Almost wrecked after I caught a quick glimpse of the distinctive tail lights.

I got it from Joe @ G8Sonly.com Great guy. Hooked me up same day with the splitter. Recommend for anyone with a G8.
Once we get back from OC it will be going on the dyno to see what it can do. We have a base tune in it for now. Coil overs are also goin in ASAP to get that space outta the wheel well.
