Default Interesting ea-ed bodykit

Whilst performing an occasional ebay browsing session, I came across this kit:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....565462618&rd=1

It certainly is different; from what I can tell the front is a combination of the ed xr grille and an eb gt bar with an added lip, and the rear looks a lot like a ba xr bar. It would obviously be more suited to an ed xr than any other model considering the twinlight setup, but yeah, just thought I'd share it with everyone, as it's not your usual eseries kit. Thumbs up or thumbs down?

I'm not to sure about where the rear bar meets the lights/garnish; it looks odd from that rear shot, I reckon it needs a bit of depth

this was baught to my attention today by Ned, the rear looks very V8 supercar to me.

i really like the side skirts... and the front aint bad too.

need to see it on a (light coloured) car though :/

mm, it is a bit hard to see properly on the car in that colour, plus the size of the photos really doesnt help. and yeah, the side skirts are simple but effective indeed

I have seen pictures of this kit on a car, it looks ok.
Roosta was looking at putting it on his ED during the colour change, but headlight price stoped him.

It looks like the rear bumper has come off an AU V8 Supercar. It really doesn't suit the ED shape. The front bar looks really good though. I wouldn't mind one on my car.

As EFFalcon has said I showed him that today, I'm not a fan of that front bar, but the rear and skirts looks pretty tip top!

The extra little lips on both front and rear bar dont do it for me. I like the idea of the front bar with the xr grille as one piece, would have saved me some work when i done mine.

Yeah, I saw that, but EFFalcon didn't mention it was an AU design though! I was just pointing that out.

That looks Not bad at all, The front would look better if the XR light surrounds were separate.. but then it would be a moffat with XR front :P

The rear bar in those pics looks a lot nicer than the pics from EB-maen. It looks bold and seems to fit a lot better around the top of it.
