Taillights are gay but other than that it looks good.

very neat example of an el xr8. however, u need to lose the tail-lights IMO

by **[Sterling]** » March 10th, 2008, 7:34 pm

EF tail lights FTW, very nice XR though.

yep for sure, ditch the current lights and go for the EL lights.

by **XRated** » March 10th, 2008, 9:50 pm

Looks sweet, just needs different wheels I reckon. The clear tail lights don't look that bad, if anything go EL lights if you ever do change them (like the two above said).

by **makvaiielles_xr6** » March 10th, 2008, 10:04 pm

whats wrong with ef lights? i recon clear lights look alrite as for the body kit i think only xrs should have it

by **Eb Barbie** » March 11th, 2008, 7:25 am

Some cars/colours they look shit on, I reckon they look mint on this! And I dont mind Petes/phatels. Nice ride!

by **YBHVE4** » March 11th, 2008, 9:54 am

El Fairmonts come with the clear indicator like the EF.

But personally i think the clear tailights look alrite on his car.

nice looking ride mate. Fully optioned up too which is a fantastic combo

EL lights look shit

by **pHaT`eL** » March 17th, 2008, 2:36 pm

EL tail lights FTL. Whoever thought it would be great to put orange back on the lights needed to be shot. Doesnt matter if you put EF lights in it, EL Monts and Ghias had 'high series' tail lights which were just EF ones anyway.

by **t1MMy** » July 9th, 2009, 8:11 pm

Those wheels would weigh as much as the car.

by **SnyperEB** » July 9th, 2009, 9:05 pm

Hell yeah those rims are sick.

by **Amon** » July 9th, 2009, 9:07 pm

not a fan of those wheels but the car is mint... chrome ftl

by **burnt turtle** » July 9th, 2009, 9:12 pm

very clean looking car mate

by **oneredED** » July 9th, 2009, 9:18 pm

Engine bay +1 point
Wheels -1 point.

Back to where you started.

Points for effort though.

by **EDFalcon** » July 9th, 2009, 9:25 pm

Engine bay looks really nice. Got some pics without the cover on??

and a -1 for subs

its neat but those subs are old mate, spend a little and upgrade to some new ones. im suprised they still work lol

nice car tho, not a fan of the rims

by **Eb Barbie** » July 10th, 2009, 8:11 am

Love the rims but not sure about them on the car. Each to their own, as long as your happy

by **psychotic-angel** » July 10th, 2009, 10:47 am

by **BLC** » July 10th, 2009, 11:49 am

Shit wheels.

by **FordFairmont** » July 10th, 2009, 12:09 pm

those wheels look really, really bad..... im sorry but i had to say it

by **SnyperEB** » July 10th, 2009, 12:14 pm

If the car sat 30mil lower at the back the wheels would look even better.

by **Kenaz** » July 10th, 2009, 12:35 pm

Holy shit that thing is clean!

I don't really like the wheels or tail lights, but overall I give it the thumbs up :good:
