see dezza thats how good a body colored scorcher front bar looks...

i love the dark blue one with the chromies...

im not normally a fan of chrome but those rims and the XR front just look so nice together. kinda like pats car when he has his 19s on with the XR front.... the front kinda looks fatter than other XR's.

Roosta, I just noticed your mirrors. Are you going for an Audi style now with the silver mirrors or something?

hehe , yer it never does

you can actually get plastic chromed...

i dont have any contact details, but they paint this metallic paint over it (looks like copper kinda) then they chrome it how they would chrome metal. and it sticks pretty well... might be worth a shot?

they need the metal paint on it as the chrome is electroplated on or some such thing

edit:
try giving these guys a buzz
http://www.plasticchrome.com.au/index2.html


hehe just noticed they are 10 mins up the road from me

yeah, I haven't heard great things about that stuff. I was thinking of doing my doorhandles with it ages ago (just the inside part, like on the WH-WL Statesmans), but after hearing opinions on it, I gave up that idea. Now I'll have the colour coded EF ones

Yeah I feel the same way about getting good feedback on my car! As for the road trip, will have to do it one day and meet up!

As for membership, firstly are you guys coming to the Geelong All Ford Day in Feb? Will need to be a member to be in Ozecruisers display. And as you said, its only $20 so stop being a tightas$, you just spent a few K on new paint, surely you can give up 20 bucks!! LOL!

PS. The name is Braden, drop the 'N' out of the middle of my name! LOL! :

No offence taken. The decision as to whether a person desires to join a club is a decision for them to make for themselves. No one is saying you don't have a choice - you have to be a member. It DOES need to be pointed out thatthe Oz E Cruisers now exist as a club, and that as a result there will be changes occuring to ensure that our members receive benefit in the membership.
