This is a TE that belongs a bloke who owns a smash repairers near me. The Front & Rear bars are from a Ford TE50, the sides are VRX, the Bonnet is off some american thing I can't remember, the wing is "Just some f**kin' big wing I had on the wall of the shop" as he said it, side vents on the kit and front guards are from a Old monaro dunno which series. Don't know if he's done much to the engine other than a 2.5 cat back. A very hot magna.

Also the paint is umm dunno what the 'technical' paint way to describe it but its a white that has a effect like when oil mixes with water on concrete and makes that rainbow effect. Yea...

Just a stab in the dark but the paint would be a white with pearl top spray.

The wing looks like a FD RX-7 Veilside with the bonnet i've seen before on a Diamante, taken from a dodge ram (as the bonnet is the same length apparently) and grafted on from the looks of it. Dunno if I like the ford kit though. I always belive the factory kits with a little modding look the best, otherwise we look like 89 VN commy's with VX clubbie bodykits:naughty:

I like the TE50 bottom end of the front bar.....but thats about it. The rest of the kit doesn't flow with the Magna lines.

The kit was moulded to fit. I agree with everyone on the wing it just doesn't go I would have gone wingless or at least a TJ VRX wing. I love the front end I reckon its tip-top but the rear end really does stick out when you see it in person.

Ummm... errr.. .no. Looks like what it is: bits of this, bits of that. Doesn't hang together as a complete look. :nuts:

Remove the wing and replace the bonnet with a stock one and I think it would look ok.

Edit: I like that front bar.

front bar and sides are hot dont like the rear bar and wing. wing is just looks yuck and same goes to the bonnet but i like the side vents. and he needs parras and color coded grill and the side mirrors dont kgo with the beefy look.

but ye its different

The side mirrors are alot worse in person, just be thankful the overcast and my fone didn't include them. I also reckon along with parabolics he should go for a letterboxx grill.

thats a boring bory kit, don't mind the hood, but doesn't suit this car cause its not a muscle, the wing i don't mind, but if it was push forwards bit it would be heaps good

overall about 5 to 6 out of 10, looks better then my boring magna thats for sure.

i've seen worst, but i've seen better,

Sports mirrors my ***. The 3rd gen mirrors were specially designed for aerodynamics
(just visualise a flag in the wind). Porsche etc all use this design.

me thinks its yuk, and I thought I was the king of rice but those mirrors are bnorg-

closest english interpretation- the sound of vomit running out of someones nostrils as they choke on the vomit in their throat-

apart from that good on him for making it a bitsofeverything instead of a bitsamissing. And thats parts recycling - are those side vents
backwards? anyway good on him for the effort.:D

I think the paint has a rainbow clear coat. Just like MOBSTER has on his MAZDA. Expensive though.

Im not a fan of the front bar. Too much fordish. But the rest seems nice. I specially like the vent, where the side indicators used to be ;)

Probably not. The driving lights are a big clue.

The front bar looks like it was made for a Magna. :cool:

Clean and simple, not too many curves and pockets and holes and...other stuff.:bowrofl:

i cant look at any AU falcon without instantly thinking.

" Just to the station thanks mate "

it doesnt matter if its a TS50 or not, there all just glorified taxi's

I dont mind it.. I would go a little more and remove the mitsubishi grill/vent from the front, customise that and it would be awesome.

* Not a fan of that wing either but the car does look awesome!

Pearl White.

A bloke on my street drives a TE50 in that nice metallic blue colour... it'd be such a nice car if he dewinged it.

The thing with the TE50 kit is... it was made for the TE50. Not Magna's. Looks horrid!

Yea rear bar and wing are way off but the front bar is well done IMO. Looks a whole lot better than fellas who put Skyline R33 fronts on magnas (ITS WRONG). Its just I would put that front bar on my magna with VRX skirts and Rear bar cause its different and although the VRX kit is friggin awesome its is 'stock' and is 'common'.
