Ban to Bentls for thinking a BA bar is better than the BF. They're pretty much the fkn same.. what's not to like in either of them?

I don't like the line bits next to the foglights in the BF XR bar, trying to be fake vents or something.
BA bar looks tougher.

I reckon BA bars own BF bars. As jared said the line things next to the fog lights are a bit try hard. BF tail lights own BA ones.

Yeh, montrose will replace everything and give it a fresh coat of paint, Ashmores will just fix the bonnet and bumper and replace everything else.

Hae you got BF tail lights yet?

yeh bf tail lights look heaps cleaner n i just like the shape of the ba xr front bar better over bf xr.. just personal preference.. i also reckon ghias look better than xr in both ba mk1/2 and bf mk2 but don't like bf 1 ghias... soemthing about their front bars just looks iffy... kest should go bf mk2 ghia front on it..... :D the rest is bf ghia anyway pretty much....plus you got the looms for the foglights just put the smaller ghia foglights in (same as fpv and focus ones)

DJR side and rear would look too massive compared to the front.
the DJR gear does look tough as though.
