After taking a closer look - I'd take a guess and say that the front bar, bonnet + flutes, rear bar (and presumably skirts) are all genuine ? From an EL XR8 judging by the cutout on the rear skirt ?

The red-ness in the bar mouldings looks to be in A1 mint condition too - you have done doubly well mate :)

Thanks mate

side skirts and rear bar + boot are off an XR8

the front bar + bonnet i think were from an XR6 IIRC from what the wrecker told me

after i lower it i will take some pics with and without spoiler

hehe, the only go i might do is the exhaust, tickford head and a 5 speed manual and lsd, basically all the genuine XR gear, but maybe not for a while as my missus just gave birth to our first child, so before i think about boosting it ill be looking for another family car as we are using the XR mock for da family atm.
