Hi there,
I am after advice on how to convert my T3 to a V8 supercar front. Before you all slag off at me, I am putting all my original T3 stuff in the garage as I don't want it damaged. So, can I use the original front guards? What do I need besides the XR lights and supercar bar? Thanks in advance blackte50 |

A low series bonnet, the lights and ditch the engine cover and I think that's about it
Love to see how it looks- thought of this myself- thought it would go with my theme (really have a soft spot for that rear bar) Keep us posted and good luck

S1 Forte/Futura and all XRs Series I to III. Its the bonnet with the spine down the middle and the Ford badge attached to it instead of being on the grille.

Theres a few of the XR light assemblies on Ebay.
Normally its guys like me trying to make my car look a little better with a T3 kit. Never heard of anyone want to do the otherway : Well i guess you already have the horsepower.I gotta see this when your finished. Also be interested to see how the Pursists get of on this. Good luck. As Jamie said. Keep us posted.
