a god dam ba wagon BODY KIT??

every single commodore wagon seems to have 10 different bodykits to choose from? but from AU-BF there seems to be hardly anything?

i contacted AWC fibresports as they seemed to be the only company who made a AU TS50 rear bar and skirts for wagon and asked them if i could purchase an AU bar and have it modified to fit my ba but they BLUNTLY stated that they don't make them anymore? and gave me NO advice on how i could maybe accomplish this task.

so i just wanted to know, does anyone have a sollution for me? im lining up a ba gt/bf gt front bar and will be getting some side skirts modified to fit my wagon, but how should i go about a rear bar???? :(

The reality is that there's not much demand for wagon kits on Falcons.
I went to a lot of trouble to develop a kit for the XF wagon years ago (mainly because I owned one) and sales were minimal.

I'd rather buy a real XR wagon than just slap a bodykit on it.

AWC never made a TE50 rear bar for a wagon. It was a member of AFF who designed it and made it and AWC had it to make a mold to punch out a lighter fibreglass one for use. They then took the credit for the rear bar design and there was a bit of trouble between the bars rightful owner and them.
The bars owner took his bar back and it has been a big stink ever since.
