Default FG Section

Was talking to another member on here who has made the jump from B series Falcon to an FG Falcon about the lack of FG section.

While there is a few threads in the Show and Shine area and the S/C and Turbo sections there is no real FG area.
FG has been out for ~4 Years now and becoming popular second hand and a few guys have made the jump from B series to new FG.

Just a suggestion.

I think this was actually discussed in the past.

Don't quote me on this, but I think the reason why an FG dedicated forum was never created was because the "B series" section was actually a group of people outside of AFF who wanted to spread out more and get to know more people/members, and requested a sub-forum here on AFF.

Start an FG Series.com club like AUFalcon, B-series and T-Series. Then I'm sure admin would create a section with other community based clubs. But I think you need to start a club first.

Default Re: FG Section

My suggestion is to introduce a FG Technical data link section in Contemporary, similar to the BA-BF Technical Data Links sticky section (also one for the AU) in that folder.

There are a number of items that can already go in there, such as the premium sub wiring change, speaker retrofit solutions, interior lights, bluehoons rockford fosgate installation, side indicator location moved to the mirrors, djr spoiler fitment, immediately come to mind. I'm sure there will be lots of others that will come in the future as the FG matures further.

Default Re: FG Section

There has been plenty of info on the FG for a while ... it's nearing 4 years old I guess.

Would be good to maybe see an FG Build thread section ... as I see different ones here and there in Show 'n' Shine and Performance Builds as well.
