Considering they are fibreglass kits i would get someone to fit them.

I would also steer clear of ssv.

I got my Venom ELXR6 front bar from SSV, they were pretty professional, sent it in the time they said they would, it fitted up perfectly with no modifications which is more than you can say for most after market kits. The guy who installed it said its the easiest kit hes ever had to fit. They are a little pricey, but get the panel beater who is fitting it to order it and they get trade. i got it for $759 in the end, which is pretty good, cost 400 to get it fitted, primed and painted.

Fibreglass aftermarket kits generally don't fit well enough straight out of the box.

As for ssv, one of my mates got a kit and the fibreglass was thin and didn't fit well (lots of fiddling/modifying). It was for a vx commie though, other moulds might fit better.

ssv are pricey but they seem to have the majority of kits on there, just thought id put it out there so you could see some of the kits available and then shop around for them :)

If you want something a little more "Out there" Kurnell Kustoms do the EF/F6 front bar and Fibreglass Bulge EF GLi Bonnet.

I had a look at there website and they only have bonnets for sale ATM.
http://www.kurnellkustoms.com.au

And this was the EL XR/F6 front bar.

But have a look though SSV.com. They have both of the above. As well as F6/GT rear bar.
