i also have to get my boot has been resprayed because before i got it, it was done in a diferent shade of red so i have to get that boot resprayed anyways

Go the Tickford wing ;) It looks wierd with no wing and the factory kit.

But its up to you ;)

[Simmo]

[CruizinEB]

Get the Tickford wing, it will make it look compleat,

[Kenaz]

[Walkinshaw]

Wings are bad mkay

[FairmontEL]

[mcflux]

Tickford kit. No wing ;)

And dumpage :P

[Shonky]

Yeah go the Tickford wing and drop it on its ****.

[XRated]

Is it an EF or EL kit? The full EL kit with the F2(?) wing is hot.

[EF302]

no spoiler, it spoils it.lol.
dont like wings,although my car has one.
the ticky wing isn't to big on ef/el's so it looks pretty good with the kit.
personaly, no wing...

[hornet]

I'm with the later posts, no spoiler.

[gmkila]

ef el has to have wing with body kit get the biggest xr one it will look sik and drop it on its ****.

There seems to be many varying opionions here. But it all comes down to what you want really. If it were me I would go with the wing, meh, but thats just me. Perhaps you could get one of the other members to photoshop a wing on it to see if u like it?

[Danny]

I'd Say no wing. Its different thats all, and most xrs have one anyway.

[Kaddis]

yeh i think im going to go with no wing.

i put the side skirts it on and without it being painted it matches up pretty good!


i cant put the front on caus needs to be painted


the anoying this is i went to put the rear skirt on and the stupid part of the tongue for the tow bar that sticks out is welded to the tow pack! so i cant put it on unless i cut a chunk out of the back which im not!



thanks for all the input!

[EFFalcon]

so its either cut hole in rear bodykit, or remove tow bar?
whats gunn happen ;)

[Kaddis]

no way in hell im cutting out a hole in my bodykit so im going to have to take off my rear bumper and angle grind that tow piece off.

how do i go about taking my rear bumper off?

[EFFalcon]

under the boot carpet near the sides there are 2 grommets (on each side), behind them are a bolt each.
then in the wheel arch, undo the mud flaps (if attached) then there is a bracket in the top corner of the rear bumper, its just a 10mm bolt.
under the car there is a steel plate that is riveted to the spare wheel well, i simply cut it off.
thats all i think, the whole thing should slide off the back of the car
if you're essentially making the tow bar useless, you might aswell remove it all together.
lighten the car up

[Kaddis]

cool so i can just unbolt the whole tow pack?

[EFFalcon]

yeah, there will be a way to do it.
its not a very 'big' tow pack, so it shouldn't go much further then just inside the boot.

some of the bigger ones go all the way back to near the diff :P

[Kaddis]

yeh there was a few bolts in my boot i undid but the tow bar connects to some bigger steel thats i think goes around to near the diff!

ooh well i'll go out tonight and see if i can get it off! my diff also packed in today so i have to rebuild the other on with the LSD and get it fitted ASAP!

[niko]

u can get 2peice rear skirts that have space for towbar

[Danny]

Yeah, they got a little like piece that comes off for when you want to put in the tow bar. The factory ones did anyways.

[harry]

i have got the 2 piece rear skirt on my xr. doesn't look to bad. if your not going to tow again then take the tow bar off, but then you might want to tow something later down the track and you'll have now tow bar and you'll be spewin.
