I looked at so many kits when I bought XR8 but settled on what was known as the GS kit - now called the MMM. It was a development of the blown XF that was built for Mobil but I reckon it flowed better on the E series body.
In about '93 they released the front spoiler minus the spotty recesses - looks ok too. I kept the standard XR8 wing rather than something on posts, looks sharper imo. Had to fit a twin system on it after I built the new engine so it still needs some work to build a small return lip and neaten up the bigger hole. It is a big kit though, front / rear aprons, side skirts + lower door panels to each door. Here's a few shots from all the angles.

It depends on what your after.
A ED sprint lip kit is always good looking. Brock kits and d**k Johnson kits are sutle but stylish. A EB GT kit needs good wheels and needs to be fitted well, other wise the flares don't match anything. Like mine. The GTO kit is good if you like a more "Out there" look. The rare Moffat kit is a good looking one that works if you plan on a Retro style. Im thinking of doing this my self now. The MMM kit is good as you can see above. And Me personally, I don't like the SSV kit. It looks like a VN Group A kit. But if You like it then go ahead. Thats just a small run down of most of the kits that are made to kit boxcars. |

Personally, I think the EA GT is an orgasm.
I've been to the ford museum in geelong, I could live there... I like the smoothness of the SR 3800 kit, boxcars need the solid kit with minimal "lumps" and bumps sticking out (like the sideskirts of the MMM kit) to keep the lines of the car normal. Definately giving me ideas, The GTR conversion looks interesting. Why the hell did anyone make a kit for the ea-ed based on the commy kit???

Does anyone do the EB 5.0 pre v8 supercar race kit? They looked s**t hot on the track. Ive seen a few AU's getting around with the supercar kit (I even had one once upon a time) so I can't see why running the EB race car kit would be a prob.

That might be hard to find, maybe custom made, or call up ssv/fibre fab and see if they can make one up.
They do make the boxcars look mean though.

The big thing about boxcars that gets me is that people go spastic putting flares and skirts and big front bars, then they put the stock xr8 wing on and its just totally out of proportion. If youre going for the big fat kit, put a big fat wing on, that white car on the previous page has a lovely kit, but the little dovetail spoiler is way to small, he should sell that doevtail spoiler to meeee and buy a EB GT wing.
And I agree about the EB GT orgasm thing, about 10 years ago I test drove one with at least 450hp, and that one drive was enough for me to put one on the top of the 'I must buy when I win lotto' list. EB GT's are automotive sex. And I want some lol. |

I was thinking the same about the MMM kit car, the wing kills it, I've seen a few BA's in similar dress, fat azz kit, and no wing. It looks too wierd, like a big fat person with a shaved head!
If you want a XR6/8 rear lip I can probably round one up for you (I do have one but it's back In Alice springs, it's of a XR8, it's white and has all the bolts in it. Let me know man. I was talkin about the EA GT yeah EA! (the purple one a few pages back, has GT 351 up the side. The EB is sexy though, except the pointless bonnet bump, I've seen number 277 I think it was, with 2500 k's on the clock, it still has original tyres and you can hear the weather seals "crack" as you open the door! I stood there for a minit when I fist spotted it thinking "am I looking at what I think I'm looking at?" yes, automotive erotica. I just want some! LOL
