Hi there guys.
Does anyone know anyone that builds fibreglass replica's of the ED XR front? I need 1 for a speedway car, and don't want the cost involved in buying the original Ford version when its going to be damaged and repaired constantly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Most aftermarket bodykit suppliers can sell you a 'GTXR' front bar, which is a cross between an EB GT front bar and the ED XR headlight setup.
Seeing as you dont need the lights I reckon this would be perfect for you. - John |

Yeah have looked into both the panel shops and fabricators, they need to make a mould to start with.
Yeah also looked the GTXR Bar, which may eventually have to do, just was hoping to retain the standard plastic bumper bar, as they will cop a bit more of the rubbing then the Fibreglass bars. Just thought there may of been someone out there who made them! |
