Well if your spray painter will do a better job than that, I don't see why not :P

It will look fine BUT before you get too excited I'd be finding out if AWC are going to still be around and producing the XR50 bur first.

the company you have emailed have copied the XR50 front anyway, so youll get the front through AWC or them either way

ok Ill wait and see what they say in the email.
but its good to hear that I will still be able to get the XR50 frontbar and XR side skirts and rear bar. Looks like I will be doing the whole project sometime after 15th January after my car goes in to have the bearings in the diff replaced. Cheers, |

it looks ok, except that the xr50 front bar is much lower than the standard XR kit in real life. so the car will look bucktoothed.

If it sits the same height as the ts50 bar, then your probably looking at a good inch. However, normally the skirts sit lower than the front or rear bars.

In that photo it doesn't look to bad, the other option is to shave off an inch from the the bottom of the XR50 front bar.

Here is another one I have been playing around with, same bodykit but with GT rims.
Looks nice as well. Gotta find another set of rims as the kaotics are .5 inch to wide, insurance will only let me have 18X8. |

My car looks crap with GT rims but good with the XR50 front.
Click the link to find a better cleaner pic of it.

Hey RedXR8220,
you have one nice XR8, here is a pic with the XR50 bar on the front and your current rims. |

I prefer the stock XR front. The XR50 bar looks way too cluttered in the first place.. The indentation for where the striping should go, and how close the blinker is to the foglight surround lets it down i think. Also it looks funny having a big front bar and small skirts.
