New xr50 front bar and wing

2002auxr6 · 05-02-2007, 03:30 PM

hey guys im going to finally order the xr50 front bar and the rear wing, im just wondering if anyone on the forums has pics of there car with the rear wing or front bar with the standard skirts and standard rear bar, i have the rebel kit currentley on the car and i was thinking would it look funny with the front bar being a bit lower

My ex S3XR8 same colour, XR50 front and Rebel kit. Rear XR wing I took off and had a Bi Plane spoiler made up then I wanted no wing and put a carbon fibre S1Forte bob tail which looked great imo lol.....
Do a search or someone will have saved some pics. Oh yer a couple of pics are in my aufalcon whatayacallit !
XR50 does look lower compared to Rebel skirt but only you and us could pick it, friends and who ever wouldn't have a clue.

This is an old pic .... Buckies current wheels

I do remember seeing a rear shot on the freeway on the way back from Wagga though in a very old post with the new bobtail on.

2002auxr6 · 05-02-2007, 04:07 PM

**FTE217** · 05-02-2007, 04:10 PM

Thanks very much Mechan1k !!!

I'm not real flash with uploading, still lazy haven't got a photobucket account lol.....
Ooo memories ! I miss that grey coloured girl, just needed more power !
Here's the rear on the move thanks to Bucky on the way to Wagga '05, my how time flies !

Oh yer 2002auxr6, to get that look, lower rear with SL Kings, also wheels are the key imo, the multi spokes were 9.5" rears, looked fat

**Mechan1k** · 05-02-2007, 04:13 PM

Bobtail FTW
Awesome shot indeed.

AU3 kit will fit on an Series I easy, just swap your bumpers over, whack on the skirts and you're done.

I dont know what the name of those wheels are, Maurie changes them so often he doesnt know either :hihi:.

Well I understood you were ordering the XR50 and leaving the Rebel kit on thats all.
Now you are selling the rebel kit. So are you going a full T3 kit then ?

oh i understand now, if i can get rid of the rebel kit for a decent price i will sell it if i cant sell it in the nextcouple of days i wil go with the xr50 front bar and leave it with the rebel kit, but if i do sell it i will go the whole t3 kit and will even buy the buldge bonnet

**FTE217** · 07-02-2007, 04:36 PM

and you couldn't understand my post cheeesh LOL....

2002auxr6 · 07-02-2007, 05:39 PM

lol sorry...

**Mechan1k** · 07-02-2007, 05:50 PM

I think it would lok awesome if you kept the Rebel kit and used the XR50 front ... although the T-series skirts are nice ... I do think the Rebel kit s the goods. Would probably save the cash by keeping the Rebel kit and use it on something else for the car

2002auxr6 · 07-02-2007, 06:35 PM

yeah true i was thinking that, whats everyones opinion of the bonnet buldge

on a 6 no. I reckon your car looks tops as it is, love that colour. Get yourself some big fat rims like Maurie had and it will set it right off, the Rebel kit is one of the best ones Ford ever brought out IMHO, and everybody has the TS kit anyway. Youve got a factory fitted kit, leave it that way.

**Mechan1k** · 07-02-2007, 09:45 PM

Does look good on the low-series AU bonnets for sure ... just debadge it and some people will think it's an 8 ... until they hear the exhaust note.

Have a look at Buckies XR6 with bulge ... it does suit the XR50 front end.
*he even admits to polishing his bulge regularly as well*

2002auxr6 · 08-02-2007, 12:55 PM

im going with just the xr50 front bar and the rear wing for now, ive ordered it so it will be all done in a couple of weeks, im excited!

2002auxr6 · 20-02-2007, 11:45 AM

recieved bar and rear wing, will test fit it this week and hopefully have it painted next week, will post up some pics then, also need to sell rear spoiler and front bar, offers welcome they need to go!
