the side skirt and rear bumper skirt will not fit on a Fairlane.

The Fairlane is based on the LWB platform as oppose to the SWB for Fairmont. Therefore you side skirts needs extending.

The rear bar between fairmont and fairlane is completely different. ATM, no one produces and skirting to suit a Fairlane rear bar.

Hope it helps.

Send them an email they might have something.

I see you have a DF LTD, do you really want to ruin the stockness of it? If I had a DF LTD I would keep it as stock as possible, excpet for heaudnit.

Just my opinoin though. I have seen Fairlanes with LWB Tickford side skirts, but like has been said noone has sad they have a rear bar that fits. THat said ith enough fibreglass and innovatiion....

twirquirky, i know what your saying, to do with possibly being a collective thing in the long run..
but unfortunately realistically thinking i doubt it will gain much if any value.. especially not enough to stunt my wanting to mod it :P
and if it can be done well enough! it'l look factory fitted anyway ;)

I saw a NL Fairlane for sale on Gnagara Rd that had a Tickford kit on it, big wing and all. Silver in colour.

Tickford kit looks great on a Fairlane.
