It might just be my eyes but it doesn't even look to be straight. Who in their right mind would put this on their car?

Eee Gods Man. Nice way to turn an aerodynamic Falcon into the physics equivilant of a FJ40 landcruiser. Its that big its bolted on with about 12 bolts.
Hopefully anyone who buys one of these will have their rear end take off around a bend and slide down a very steep embankment to their deaths.

Blah blah blah. Can't you guys get new material. Your AU bashing are becoming old and tiring, If you can come up with some original material, please come back and see us. Now go, and let us never see your name again.

Au's get a bad rap, just because of the series 1 povo packs. They were ferkin horid, but the T3's are also AU's, so ar the XR's and you can't bag them on their looks

The guy selling it had a full "V8 Supercar" bodykit which he spent months trying to flog off, finally sold it arounf the begining of the year. Looks like the person who bought it didn't bother picking up the wing

I would think that wing would get a defect pretty quick what a ugly sucker.

I think Mark (Rspec) was originally going to get that wing along with the rest of the kit but thank god he chose to get the GT wing instead because that one is hideous! You'd have to be mad to think it looks good. I like the rest of that kit, but I've never liked that wing :
