BF GT front on AU XR

REDAUXR6II · 26-10-2007, 12:12 PM

Hey All,

Just playing around with this again, I am thinking about doing the following to my XR.

What do you think,

**Polyal** · 26-10-2007, 12:13 PM

Hmm..waste of time IMO. Better off with the lower part of the T3 kit.

REDAUXR6II · 26-10-2007, 12:16 PM

Yer I like the bottom half of the t3 kit but every man and his dog has one now

klawsterfobik · 26-10-2007, 12:19 PM

I reckon that looks bloody good actually...

GlennBA · 26-10-2007, 12:21 PM

Looks sweet. Less busy than the xr50 bar.

Having something that looks good, and being bothered doing it are two different things I guess..LOL

I found a mob on ebay that does an entire BF GT kit for $900 minus the rear wing.

I would have to buy an XR50 frontbar as well, much easier moulding fiberglass to fiberglass.

Blackers has put up a photochop of his lane with a GT front bar on it, and there is only one word for it, damn hot.

REDAUXR6II · 26-10-2007, 02:07 PM

Another Chop

I think my car looks terrible with that bar. If you want a B series buy a B series.

**FTE217** · 26-10-2007, 02:13 PM

I reckon it looks pretty good, I think it needs the buldge but you may as well buy a BS eries.......
Don't like it with the Phoon rims, 5spoke above heaps better.

REDAUXR6II · 26-10-2007, 02:27 PM

yer I like the 5 spoke as well just though I would try it

That looks excellent!!!

hrdcor · 26-10-2007, 05:34 PM

Nice. Would definitely be interested in more info when it came to the build/fitment of the kit. The overall effect would be scary good if you were to include the same lower intake style on the rear bumper that the b series has aswell, here's hoping you go ahead and show us all what can be done.........

I disagree. The 5 spoke are awful. The phoon rims give the car a tougher look. I like the bar.

InfernoSR · 26-10-2007, 07:02 PM

I like it as its different, with the XR lights that is... The Phoon rims make it look different, but arent my favourite Phoon Rims.

Those are though

FRDGAL · 26-10-2007, 07:10 PM

I like it. It makes it look unique. Everyone usually does the same thing so do something different. I say go for it!

this thread is about building something different not an exercise in buying a new car maybe he likes some aspects of both cars and wants to blend themtoo many on this forum are too quick to say buy a Bseries when people want opinions on their AU if they wanted A B series they will buy one FFS

STORKYGT · 27-10-2007, 07:20 AM

Well said au3xr6 .............................

InfernoSR · 27-10-2007, 10:17 AM

Calm down, calm down. I am one of the first to defend the AU, maybe you should look into some other threads before you mouth off. Also remember that the picture that has been used is of MY car, therefore I think that I have the right to make any comment that I like. In regards to the B series thing, while I agree that the AU is superior to the B series in many ways I really don't like putting B series fronts on AU's. This is simply due to the fact that the AU was designed to have a sleek aerodynamic front, something the B series does not have. Grow up and calm down, no need to get worked up over something said on a bloody forum.
