Not so sure about that, but they certainly aren't T3 wings, and if it was sold to you as a T3 wing, I'd take it back and insist on the proper T3 wing.

No not my wheels. A few more spokes than my current wheels. Anyway, they were far to girlie for me.

I don't think the Hawk Wing is that bad. Looks ok. But glad to hear your getting the TS50 wing. It will suit the lines of your XR much better. And you will be surprised how good the TS50 wing looks with the rebel bar.

And further more, that is the sexiest number plate surround in the world. I'll be in Melbourne Friday night and staying near the Essendon Club. We are going spend our night there with a few beers a feed. Can't wait.

Sorry mate I know you had one :Reverend:
I should have said, "yes it looks good but imo the original T3 wing more suitable !"

thanks mate it was bloddy hard work didnt think it was going to be that hard, it took about 4 hours to get it all right, i drove hom with it on and first drive way i went in crunch!! damaged the front bar so i will need to have it repaired when i get it sprayed

JC · 25-02-2007, 01:12 AM

Looks good without a rear wing at all! Keep it like that.

I agree that the T3 wing kills the Hawk wing, and given that they are the same price, I don't see why anyone would choose the hawk over the T3. But, the Hawk is still a decent wing, if you like that sort of thing (which I did, a few years ago). Now, the bobtail does it for me.

**FTE217** · 25-02-2007, 02:55 PM

Yep I love the bobtail rear with fat tyres and lowered, looks awesum.
I have thought about taking the T3 wing off mine but just can't bring myself to do it..............yet hehe

The car is young - give it time! I've seen a meteorite T3 in Canberra with the bobtail - looks great, IMO.

Fury · 27-02-2007, 08:35 PM

Sorry for the quality, camera phone job.

And yes I know it has the 4wd height, seems safer when driving in this area for the moment.

**FTE217** · 28-02-2007, 12:12 AM

Fury that looks pretty good, get more pics please ?

Fury · 28-02-2007, 04:22 AM

It looked better without the wing then I expected.

I was going to get the TS50 wing until I saw a pic side on, of the TS50 wing, xr wing and the hawk wing, and then I decided to go with the Hawk wing..one day

**DJM83** · 28-02-2007, 09:04 PM

Looks neat well done, bob tail would look good im thinkin of takin the XR wing of my TE and gettin a bob tail

Yep much better look for the T2....

AU2PWR · 28-02-2007, 10:32 PM

Looks Nice Dude , Well Done

Fury · 01-03-2007, 02:38 AM

Ty, now that's done, I've decided to sell it and buy an AU fairmont Ghia v8, they're reasonably priced now and it'd be much better doing up a luxury or performer then a family forte

JefXR8 · 01-03-2007, 02:35 PM

just wanted to post this up to show peeps an option they can do to modify the xr50 bonnet,it makes a massive difference getting the crease removed and the badge section removed also,some peeps may not like it but i think it makes a huge diff for the better.

Bucknaked · 01-03-2007, 06:14 PM

I like that JefXR8. Very nice indeed

**FTE217** · 01-03-2007, 10:44 PM

Agree with you peepjefxr8,never liked the crease one bit. I had one of the early ones and really didn't want it but the mould was done.
Looks great peep,wtf is peep ?!or who do you mean lol....
Change your gaurd blinker lense to the clear,heaps better imo.
Any side shots ?
