I kinda like it without it, its smoothed over, not just taken out.
I like the whole no badges/shaved look on cars anyway.

Definately no XR front for this, no point, its just a 6 on gas without any other XR bits on it.

Gona be rare to see a Falcon without an XR front soon!

i liked my futura front but ef/el headlights are shithouse.. the XR lights with the hid projector retrofit shits all over falcon lights
considering i drive at night a lot, the upgrade was worth it for me

Looks awesome :D are they 2inch blocks in the rear and 15's?? I'm trying to decide what size blocks to get for mine. It's got 18's which I havent actually seen on the car yet (waiting till after the roadworthy) and it's gonna have a set of lovells lows for the front that I'm getting from SEXYR6 on the weekend.
It's going to be a Daily / shopping trolley / baby wagon so I dont wanna go too low but dont want it too high either :( decisions decisions :?: :?:

Very nice.
Looks much better with the fairmont front end.

I tried flappas on mine a while back and they cut a nice groove into the tyre with in a couple of days. Maybe they were just a crappy brand though.

Pretty sure mine were Atlas. I'll have a look, if i havent chucked them out. I recon flappers will look better on silver stockies. Mine looked a bit over the top on EL ghias.

Have you thought about colour coding the black parts on the roof? Might not be as noticable in real life anyhow.

If it was boosted, the flappers wouldnt have had a second look in, but i need it to stand out a bit more, and with the aussie dollar being mint, these were cheap as ****!
