Yes.

But! It is NOT a direct bolt on. You will need to modify it to attach it to your car.

I have not done this mod myself, but have seen pics of it done, and asked the questions re how, hence the above info.

Happy Modding.

Cheers
BenJ

I believe some of the bumper was cut, but I do not know how or where.

You will have to do some trial fitting and work it out for yourself.

Good luck.

Cheers

Well as you found out, you can....


Did you use the EF/EL Reo, or not?... When I did the same thing on my EF, I just simply used the EF/EL reo....


also, did you cut the rear wheel arch flaps to suit the AU bar? I had to also, but I got the bar pretty much flush right around the back of the car....
