Default DJR kit and Brock Kit

Just looking through the current issue of street fords and came across an EB with a Dick Johnson kit. Where does the Dick Johnson kit originate from? Alot of people have told me that the DJR kit is the same as the brock kit??.

Both the brock and dick johnson kit look similar but on closer expection there are distinct differences.

Brock kit





DJR kit





Front is pretty much the same on both kits but sideskirts and rear bumper are different.

let me know what you think about it?

Also The ssv website and the awc website have both of these kits, but actually dont have the brock sideskirts. Does anyone know of any places that make the brock side skirts as im very much interested in it?

regards

Yeah I Like the BROCK kit over the DJR kit...I wonder what a car would look like with A brock front bumper, GT flares with GT side Skirts to suit the flares, and a brock rear bumper, with a brock wing and clear indicators... Can any one post some pics on what it would look like...

I am just wondering what it would look like???

"I wonder what a car would look like "

"post some pics on what it would look like."

"I am just wondering what it would look like???"

be careful, some might think u wanna see what it looks like.

No idea where the DJR kit came from, just a kit i imagine, developed back in the day to make the EA-ED look better without there actually being a "DJR EB" or anything.

both are pretty nice though

I prefer the DJR kit. The Brock kit is good, but the DJR is better.

I reckon the front bumpers look fairly different. Notice the DJR front bumper has a crease to match the crease in the rear bumper. Also while the Brock kit appears to have 4 "brake ducts", the DJR kit only has 2

eg. Excuse my crude drawing but this is the main difference:

Fair enough. If you can put a BA bumper on an EF, I'm sure a Brock bumper can be made to fit a Fairlane. You should do it!

I am about to put a Brock kit on mine, i'm guessing that the brake ducts help ventalate the brakes, the question is if i put driving lights in that area (where there is a gap to do so) will this make much difference in cooling down of the brakes?

Have either type of bodykit actually help the aero dynamics of the car?

Unless you remove the splash guards, they won't cool anything. "Brake ducts" are rarely used for that purpose. Unless you run some 3" ag pipe from the duct in through a 3" hole in your splash guard, run the driving lights ;)

yeh i know there different, but it is a pretty close match. The style of both front bumpers is very similar, but as you said they are different.
