Well, I have finally completed the exterior mods to my BA XT.
Still have to add 19 Inch rims and lower but all the bumper/light mods are complete.
Complete genuine Ford front and rear bars with GT style fiberglass side skirts painted Pearl Blue.
Still thinking about a bobtail - what do you all think?
I do not like the Ford range of spoliers and maybe no tail/spolier looks best???

looks good i would go with a ba xr6 wing to finish it off. i agree with phongus i cant get used to liking the back lights but at the end of the day its something different and its your beast.

I love it!


The tail lights are great but i would keep it wingless (save that for the excels!) unless u go a subtle factory one.

Great Job
