Just wondering if any of you brisi folk (or anywhere else for that matter), know where i can get my hands on a kit for my AUII forte. Looking for something along the lines of TS50, and of course looking to not spend lucrative amounts of money?
And also if anyone knows of a fairly strong diff to put in an AU? Cheers! Dan |

Welcome Dan,
I've recently gone through the same exercise (front bar) and as well as the good looking and well priced AWC stuff you might also have a look at http://www.canberracarstyling.com.au/ http://www.carmate.com/ http://www.ssv.com.au/ It just struck me that our newest sponsor "coyote" in the "On The Spot Paint Repairs" forum may have some insights as well. Hope that helps a bit... good luck with it. |

ssv are really over priced as well compared to awc...probably cause if they buy from awc they put their own markup on the product tho

If I was to do my car over again... I'd go:
* Tickford Front Lip * Tickford Side Skirts * HO Rear Bar ![]() Have some twin chrome dumpers behind the bumper. No spoiler, or have a little lip spoiler. Lots of dumpage, big wheels. Pure class. I like that HO Rear bar... It's kinda similar to the T1/T2 Rear Bar. Cheers

I think that if you buy and get it fitted at Carmate it should turn out the same quality as any other place as most flaws can be fixed before painting Cheers Alpineau
