looks the goods but what about undertray to the front bar???
ef/el like alot of air flow to the radiator??
does the air just go straight under the car or directed to the radiator??


Does need the undertray as you call it fitted. I refitted mine when I did my bar and helps heaps. the great thing is there is more flow to the radiator with these bars than with the original Fairmont bars. Still need the Air Tunnel/undertray to direct air in and up.

im going to install a tray underneath to direct more air flow directly through tje cores.. as the new bumper sits a lil lower than the stock bar ad atm air passes through the bar but continues underneath the car..

mesh will be ordered eventualy.. clutch replacement is my no 1 priority atm...

Count yourself lucky I found that. Genuine FPV prices are down right horrifing. The little bit of mesh in my rear bar (trade price) is over $750.

obtaining mesh and spotlights is taking longer than it actualy took to design/cut/shut/bog/sand/prime/paint and fit the bar... :lol:

and DATA MINE.. my eyes water at the thought of the genuine pieces to fix your front end on that "off track adventure you had".... if only you baught and was racing in a Turbo territory you wouldnt have scraped /snow plowed throuh the drainage ditch... :lol:

i will explain it bettr shortly but i just basically laid electrical tape to make a nice straight line to trace around the horizontal curves of the bumper... its the green tape you can see in the pics early in the thread/build....
