it looks ok, but i don't reckon it flows very well with the curvey front and the back being all squared off.

I have seen a BA front on an XD - XH ute (not sure which model) and it looked pretty good.

KILAXD is the car..
You can appreciate the work gone into it, but it looked s**t.. the lines of the BA front didn't suit it at all.. very mismatched. The same as it would be if you put a BA front on an E series imo.

too much trouble too much work, and probably devalues the car anyway!!!!!!

if you do not like our car buy the one you want rather than stuffing up the one you got, cars are cheap enough now on the second hand market....

Your missing the point here. I'm not saying that myself or anyone ese should go out and pay for a BA/BF front to be grafted onto their E-series body. Yes it would be more trouble than it's worth. All I'm saying is it would look tough. Does anyone have the abilty to photoshop a BA/BF front to an E-series body so we can have a look to see what she'll look lke?

I think that EB looks absolutely nuts. I guess anything is possible, the japs put series R34 GTR fronts on 180's......

The XD ute your talking about is the Forte body styling car, those guys live down here in rye, and that thing is unreal, its got a 460 big block, twin turbos, grouse car.

i dont know if im a big fan of the looks though, i can appreciate the work that went into it, but the XD is a square car, and the BA XR8 front is very moulded and round. Still tuff as nails though
