yes ford did make flares for the eb, but only on gt models. also side skirts from the gt aswell. but they look not nearly as good as the torana ones.

EDIT: Beat me to it^^^^^
EBGT flares would be the best, you could probably mod em if you want that whole allen key look like the torries |

secondly, what type of body kit do you want?? eg), moffat, brock, sprint, xr, svo, APV SR3900, or my personal favorite, EB GT,
and then do you like rear spoilers, low design, or gt style huge wing. or do you prefer lip spoilers, like the xr and svo styles. just tell us what u like, and we can point u in the right direction. good luck mate scott

your 12 slotters, explain them, i have a set in my shed that are 7 inch shallow dish for the front with 215 size tyres, and 8 inch deep dish with 245's for the rear. they stick out to buggery (about an inch and a little bit), thats why i havent got them on

oh man...
ok first you ask about cannons, now you have 12 slotters on a EA, and now its flares like a Torana? mate, you need to check out the show room and see what nice EA-ED's look like, serious, please get some ideas from there. stockies are better on e series than 12 slotters, 12 slotters belong in the 70's! And who mentioned EB GT and torana in the same sentence, jesus!

Has anyone heard of a USC body kit?
I was just doing some research as I have USC side skirts and have never heard of them. There is a car on E-Bay with the USC kit on the link below

Looks are in the eye of the beholder, so i wouldn't worry about what people think of how you wish to present your car.
putting 70's style wheels on a 80's built car would be little different to putting a B-series badge on a E-series, if thats want you like then do it. I can remember seeing GRP C XD/E falcons running around Bathurst winning races so they can't be that bad and who wouldn't want to own Dick's range of flared Falcon's. I would be more concerned that the amount of offset would weaken the hubs and bearings. |

I believe that the company who had the molds for USC long went out of business. I had a USC front bar on my old XF. FibreMaster here in Sydney (Arndel Park) told me that when USC went bust he bought all their molds. So as far as I can tell you can still get USC kits but if you want them new go to FibreMaster and he'll make them up for you. When I went there it was like 50% deposit to get the mold made and pay the rest when you go get it.
