Cool What's your favourite bodykit/bodykit combo on an EA-ED?
Hi guys i tried searching for a thread with something similar to this to no avail
I just want to know what everyone's preferred bodykit or bodykit combinations on the EA-EDs are? Personally I'd like the scorcher kit rear bar and either the sprint or brock kit everywhere else...cheers

shame your exhaust has burnt the paint....:S
you should get the hole filled and the exhaust dumped behind the bar like on a BA XT..

They only made a limited number of these for the EA3900. I managed to get this off a guy for $80!!! The full kit!..Although it was broken in parts. But I dont think they are available genuine. Maybe someone might have the moulds still. Keep an eye out, they are a nice kit, and rare!

Just the cost of the interior parts (say 500-ish???) plus a whole arseload of screwing around getting everything to fit up (namely dash and front seats). From what I read when he/they did it, it's a very tedious task involving welding in part of an EF/L floorpan for the front seats to bolt to...

I believe he did the conversion from an entire wreck, so all the parts were on hand if needed. $500 in labour? Alot of mechanics would charge that just to pull the dash out and put it back as normal again! If you were to do this, I personally wouldn't be paying anyone to do it...

EDIT: on topic, MMM kit is ok, probably my favourite, and the APV kit is good too as has been said, but I don't think I can justify putting a bodykit on my car.

no worries...when you say you can't justify u mean cause of the price?

Yes price, but also it's just another thing to catch, scrape, or damage on stuff and then have to fix. I can't justify it for my car because it's not a show car, and it never will be. It's just my cruddy daily driver (not that I have a second car) that gets me from A to B which I happened to lower and throw some rims on...
