Default Body Kit Addon

What are those body kit addons that you see getting around on the AU's. Where it makes the front lip roll out instead of in, more defined side gaurds and better looking rear end (bumper)? How much should I expect to pay for one and from where?

It's the Tickford Bodykit. Glenn has it on his Falcon.

I have a pair of Genuine Plastic Side Skirts, that your talking about. $350.

And the full fibreglass kit costs about $800 i think.

The series 2/3 kit looks bets i think. I've got it on my car, but just a bit of friendly advice. If you get one, go plastic. Mine was a nightmare.

nup, hunt around at wreckers. If you REALLY REALLY want one.. i'd let your last resort be fibreglass. If you live in sydney get AWC to fit it.. I felt like putting my car on a truck and sending it to them to fit after the issues we had with it fitting properly and the prep work. Not happy jan ing_sm
