They probably would but you'd also need to alter the track (if that's even possible)...

Yes. They fit fine.
However. You’ll need to drill the guards to fit them. You’ll need the side skirts from an Adventra. You’ll need the front bumper from an Adventra. You’ll need to adapt something for the back or it’s possible the Adventra is the correct length from the wheel well back.

You can’t just have the flares. They fit into the subsequent parts around them.

You’ll also need a different wheel. The wheel track on the CrossTrac system fitted cars is wider so you’ll want the correct offset rim to suit. Amarok has the same stud pattern and VW Amarok wheels should fit.

An Adventra ute conversion would be pretty cool.

Cheers, I did see somewhere that the track is slightly wider than the ute but can be fixed by wheel offset and I do intend to go with bars and skirts...
Something a little different maybe

Front guard.

Rear guard

Up in the top edge of the rear guard there are nutserts required. This is for the other wheel well trims that go between the flares and the standard wheel well trims on Commodores.

The side skirts are adaptable. Cross6 and 8 use Adventra skirts but have an additional section that screws to the end for the extra length.

The back part between the rear wheel and the bumper is the same as sedan and uses sedan trim brackets. Ute might be a bit longer but the same as a wagon so Adventra would be the go.

The flares use BMW X5 flare clips. So easy to find them new.

The rear guards will have the hexagonal holes in the edge, my other Crewman does. You just need some stainless M5 nutserts.

Hey everyone . First Time posting This is what I've been thinking about for my crewy for quite a while now. It would look quite tough. I don't even mind the unpainted black abs plastic look. Poor man's 2 tone
