New ED.

by **Daniel88** » October 31st, 2008, 8:54 pm

Hey everyone, just picked up a 1993 ED Falcon for $1100. nothing flash yet. I have clear indicaors and sport's Altezza lights coming for it. I put the Kenwood CD Player into it (Was in the Ea). And i'm trying to pay off some mags called "Jet Chrome" from Beaurepairs

Here's a pic of My Ea, Dad's Eb and my ED..(Sorry about quality)

Welcome to the club mate, I personally wouldn't go the altezza real lights on an ED, they look too out of place, but go straight for the clear indicators.

The lights do look pretty good lol! The brake lights are hot pink though not red :lol:

Not sure about next mod (New laws suck) will be posting some good quality pics up when mags are fitted

Here is the beast with tail lights..

by **TheWan** » November 15th, 2008, 10:02 pm

Thats not too bad, I dunno what all the fuss is about them. I reckon if you colour coded that black strip between the lights, to the same colour as your car, it would make it look tops. Anyone be able to photoshop that up for us?

Heres a crap job i did using paint lol.

by **Daniel88** » November 15th, 2008, 10:47 pm

Your right that would'nt look bad!! See that little cream line in bumper? Would that look better in the car colour or the red to go with badges background and reflectors on light?

by **TheWan** » November 15th, 2008, 11:21 pm

Without a doubt, I would have to say red. IMO it would colour coded would look a little strange. Thats just my opinion though, remember it's your car, do what you think looks good. Remember it's your pride and joy, and everyone has different tastes. I have had people tell me to my face that my car looks $hit, and sure that hurt a little, but I love my car to death and I'll build it how I want. As for those pink brake lights, If the bulbs are coloured, just go buy some "true" red ones. Mate what part of QLD are ya from? No offence, but it looks like the sticks lol.

Cars in the shed now getting new water pump on (Sick of it heating up quick) Im down here in Charleville lol, everyone's real phycho about the Ford and Holden Thing here in the big bush!! l :lol:

but even my brother (Owns a VT Commodore) is interested to see how mine turns out

by **TheWan** » November 18th, 2008, 11:16 pm

So you got the water pump done yet mate?

by **edfairmont4.0** » November 19th, 2008, 8:34 am

Nice go the falcons! Ea/Ed are the best

the clearies in the rear would look better with the garnish blue!

by **pHaT`eL** » November 19th, 2008, 3:54 pm

Lose the clearies mate, or give them a light tint so there not so bright.

by **ford_racing_8** » November 19th, 2008, 6:02 pm

nice looking EB, as pete said loose the clearies, personally i dont rekon clear rear indicators dont suite any E series. If your looking for something different on the rear end buy a fairmont garnish and tint the whole lot, heard window tint works well comes up glossy. Reguardless its a nice clean car to start with, good luck.

by **Daniel88** » January 30th, 2009, 10:27 pm

Hey all, Water pump done along with radiator flush, thermostat, new clutch fan and now the head gasket im (TRYING) to do

Never done anything like that before and honestly have no idea what i'm doing. get my p's on Wednesday (I hope) Might have to register the old EA and drive it 4 a while

Oh and the mags are on now to alot of people like it now!

by **psychotic-angel** » January 31st, 2009, 7:31 am

looks nice mate cant wait to see the clear blinkers on it ive just ordered some for my ed. gotta say i dont mind the tail lights an color code they'd look sweet it they were tintin'd a little bit

by **Daniel88** » January 31st, 2009, 8:30 pm

Yeah might do that i think. Any idea how much it would cost?

by **psychotic-angel** » February 2nd, 2009, 10:04 am

by **ELOVER** » February 2nd, 2009, 6:31 pm

dude any car can be shit if it hasnt been maintained for shit or been flogged....ED's are far better then Eas

by **Daniel88** » June 28th, 2009, 6:28 pm

Hey all!! The ED is all fixed! The fella that i (THOUGHT) Knew how to fix it wrecked it more. The head was absaloutley stuffed! Not one thing wrong now. I've just got 18'' XHP chrome Rims and it looks awesome! Turns out the ED's Are tonnes better when ya put in the time for them!

Nice car mate she looks clean.

I was gonna get those lights and spray mine white with a red line through the garnish but decided not too.

I like those lights though and the blue looks mad on the back.

What you got lined up for her ?

Due to my red Ea Falcon missing half it's part's, Most my money is going into that! Out here it cost's $232.80 for 12 slack Adjusters! once red car is out of the way, i can finish my blue car. Start by: Putting sport's exhaust on it, eventualy getting it lowered, (can't go to low being out here)

then replace front left panel becaue it has hail damage. then get it respraid same colour.

by **Daniel88** » April 6th, 2010, 8:50 pm

Hey guy's. long time no see! got a Ford Falcon BF MK2 2006 model with a 6 speed auto in it now. Still have the old faithful ED though! doing a trip to cairns in the ed in june. dont want to clock up to many K's in the new car!

by **Joshe94** » April 7th, 2010, 7:38 am
