Nooooo... the BA badges look ridiculous on the E series.
Have to break from the mould and say I don't like it at all. Venom front bars just aren't as good as the factory bar, and if you wanted a mont you should have bought one :p the red strip suits the dark blue better imo... the chrome strip looks mismatched with the badges.
But that's just my opinion, it is good to see someone going for something a bit different.

Well I might just take the XR6 badges off and leave the Tickford wings there by themselves. The "Minimumlistic" look... It'll be sorted out some how ;)

The T badges look good by themselves.

looks good. normally i dont like the venom bars, maybe its just the colour or something but it looks good on your car.

id spend the money on the gt copies, fill out ur guards a bit more. ftr's are a great looking wheel, but 16's look too small nowadays

Yep, BA ones are so much better styled! i think the red stripes look better imo... but thats such a personal taste thing. :D

*edit* anythings better than my "stripes" atm... :shock:

Looks great. My only problem with it, is now it looks like a fairmont with a kit. A normal everyday looking fairmont. I think with the red-stripes, it'd give it a more custom look IMO. Plus with a dump and bigger chrome wheels, will look even sweeter. Anyhow, top job mate!

At least changing the appearance of my car by adding Fairmont door moulds is cheaper than making a Fairmont look like a XR with all the running gear ;)
Oh and I forgot to add that it's still got to get window tint done.

i think the chrome strip to continue along the front and rear bar, , and admitedly im not a fan of venom bars on xr kits, they dont suit at all i think, the rear just is too high and the skirts dont match, however from the front on picture, the car looks good, i think its more the side of the venom bar looks too plain compared to the XR kit, once you slam it should look better,

Thanks guy :)
I'm certainly leaning towards the decision to lower it first.
