I'm liking the angel eyes on your car wild-el. Where did you pick them up from? I've seen them on another EL XR an also on a white EB or ED wagon.


Hahaha I know where your coming from, my mums hit everything from fences, poles to dogs and even Asian lady's hahaha my trick is keep the keys on me at all times man even when I'm sleeping they stay with me..... And no I don't shove them up my a** when I sleep in the nude lol!!!

You would of seen them on mine corey's (Ef_falcon_95) red el xr6 and you would of seen green ones on seans (ausedwagon) white Ed wagon. I got mine from eBay same place Corey go his from. There's a link on corey's build some where between page 30-50 somewhere you'll find it just need to look around abit will cost ya 22 bucks lol.

And the rims look mint man you will definatly enjoy them.

I'm having withdrawal symptoms, I miss the XR6. Hopefully they've started on it and it's going well because i can't wait to get it back home to throw the wheels on, lower it then start working on the system. Is anybody selling a grey double din surround or know of anyone that is?

You could run ultra lows if you wished with out to many problems. I had ultra lows, 19's and venom body kit on my old blue EL sedan and even thought the car was low it didnt really cause any issues driving it daily

I just had a look at your thread, look's like the height I was aiming for.

Nah that'd be to low for me to get up my drive way and into work as they are both steep. Being a red p plater, modified car and on ultra's is pretty much asking for a canary.

It's on the bump stops in the rear, so thinking about putting some SL's in the rear.. SSL's might be a bit to low with a kit, just FYI

Just at the panel beaters now. The car had a lot of dints that all have been repaired. At the moment they are welding up the boot holes and fibre glassing the rear lip hole for the tow bar which is coming off. I will be posting up pictures tonight :) car will be out in two weeks or so because of the unexpected Christmas day hail.
