yeah, but how nice does it look! i have always wondered what my car would look like with a TS50 front bar in spark burg, and going by that car it wouldnt look too bad.

Never came out on an XR. The only "odd" coloured AU XR Ive seen is a Regency Red one which I know was actually a one off from factory (seen the compliance plate). It was owned by a dealer who actually got a BA XR6 in Barossa Red to match it.

There's actually an AU1 of some sort here which is sparkling burgundy, and has a Series III XR front end on it. Has AU2 XR rims, and it actually looks really, really good. I'll try and get some pics of it if i can.
