What the hell is a lip kit?

I know of a full el tickford xr bodykit in fibreglass at fairmonts gear in oakleigh. They are after around the $500 mark, front bar is in primer, rest of the kit is in heritage green but could probably do with a repaint, and it is missing one door spat which would be pretty easy to buy a new one from most bodykit specialists

a bodykit that doesn't replace the entire bar, just adds a lip to it. i.e. Tickford EF and EL body kits, there just skirts, were if you look at aftermarket kits (e.g. the ones posted above) they usually replace the front and rear bar.

Sean you could easily get a replacement from canberra car styling as they sell parts of the kit separate.

I reckon throw it on your car, would definately finish it off nicely

If you look up "ccs.com.au' as suggested, you'll get an accounting firm.
Try canberracarstyling.com.au
They beat me to that domain name!

EF front skirt and vents, everything else EL (including front bar if your going XR avenue), that's my opinion at least.
