Default Bodykit for fairlane

Hi PPL,

i was just thinking of putting a bodykit on my Fairlane 91 and went and saw this guy who will make a custon one for me. What do you think of this front bumper?

Not sure if it looks too "rice type"

Ideas will be much appreciated.

I did actually get quoted for the whole kit.
but im not sure if this look will suit a fairlane, specially the front bumper.

Considering just puting the skirts and doing a xr8 type hood.

that front bumper on the white fairlane is off an ol' BMW Series... Looks like a replica M3 bar actually from a early 90's model?!?!

The White NC looks great, but I agree with the side skirts, I don't like them but the front bar looks tempting.

I might need one photochopped onto the LTDHO!!!

Im glad you's liked the photoshopped version of my car...

Here is another pic, with a bootlip spoiler


I didn't do the photoshop, but yes, all the parts were off a BMW...
I was going to do an EA sprint style kit on the fairlane, but it was written off... so i never got the chance

To the thread starter, sorry but i dont really like the style of the pic you posted... doesn't suit the style of the fairlane... I reckon it'd be better with parts styled more towards what tickford were offering in the day.

Look into EA - ED Wagon side skirts, as they will bolt straight on, and go from there

I went and saw this guy at jetspeed and he recons it will cost abt 450 for the skirts, abt 700 for the rear. need to speak to him abt the front but the one in the pic he quoted 1300 and this is without paint and fitting. Looks damn expensive

any thing custom is gunna cost a fair bit.
SSV sell wagon side skirts, that'd be the first place to go for those (unless AWC do them too)
then its only front and rear that are custom.
if you're only doing an addon to the rear bar then i'd suggest giving it a go yourself.
