Default BF GT Bar
What does everyone think of this bar?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FORD-BF-GT-ST...QQcmdZViewItem

Its defiantly different and doesn't look all too bad though I am not a huge fan of the grill but might look different with some mesh. Anyone heard much about these guys?

Not sure. t is different. I just think the shape of the AU headlight, doesn't go well with the BF lines.

True thats what I would be worried about with one. I mean the entire t3 kit flows and was designed as one piece wacking on the front could make it look very out of place and cheap just like the VS-vy clubbie wannabes

I'm interested to see how it flows with other peices of the kit. I think like most things, after a while, it grows on you.

it doesn't look to bad front on...

but i think one thing that appeals to me about the AU is the pointy front end...and that really makes the front end rather flat....

i think that bar would look horn on an AU Fairlane!!
but would cost a small fortune to get it to fit as the lane is much more square at the front compared to the falcon sadly

I don't think it would cost you as much as you think blackers. The place seems very resonable. Like for example they havent made a BF Tyhpoon front bar to fit the AU but for $700 ($300 extra over the bf bar) they will custom make one then paint and send to you. They have good prices on fitting a ba bulge as well to a bonnet

i like it, something different. you'd have to get the skirts to match and a rear bar made up.

Not too sure but the Bf kit didn't look too bad. I was seeing at the start of the thread if anyone has herad much about them is quality is one aspect id be concerned about especially with fiberglass kits

I appreciate the work that's gone into it to make it fit, it doesn't appeal to me, but each unto their own.

Needs black bezel headlights, the foglight surrounds need to be painted in the FPV colour scheme and it needs some black mesh with a ford badg and it'd look quite nice.

Add some mesh and I reckon it would look excellent!

Grill is way to big , Needs a infill panel. Nar, cant say its grabbing me at all.
The AU is a car that has stood the test of time. Even now they still look fresh & moden. To me that sort of thing is a big no no.. sorry.
