I went 4 the XR de-badge and just did the wings and the Ford emblem.Of course the Ford emblem is set different to sedans but I removed the Falcon they had in that running writing as well.

Well the funny thing about that is that the government doesn't have anything to do with the personalised plate system other than endorsement. PPQ is a private company.

Hey, wow, it does look good, but I thought all the XR's had them there as standard? Obviously not. As someone pointed out above they marked the T series like that (see below)...I thought they did the XR's the same...they should have!

Ticky badge on the XR bootlid is definitely an improvement, dont know why Tickford didnt put them on in the first place!
