Awesome buy Scotty. It looks mint! And at least I'm still not going to be the only e-series club member still with stock suspension (even though it's still lower than mine). Well done. Can't wait to see it in person

Nah good work Scott, they deffinately feel 100% more refined then EA's, a lot of improvements went into the series 2 EB's. Hopefully you don't have the same run of luck I did with mine. _

krys, the immediate plans will be, cut and polish, ebgt gear boot, as the jelly mould one in there is damaged, replace the console lid (with a console lid) as its missing. so generally just a tidy up first
Bring it over if you like, how bad is the paint?

mate a million times better than the previous!

But EA/ED's do look hot with the GT kit minus the rear wing, and sprayed properly.

I hope it treats you well!

GT kits are for GT's. Dont change the colour of this one!

Looks like a nice upgrade.

You dont really believe that, or you wouldn't have a twincam sitting in your beast.

And yet you wont see me fit an BA-BF bonnet bulge, BA-BF body kit or those crappy BA-BF copy wheels. :

Going fast is a different ballgame to looking pretty.

When something is done tastefully then Im pretty ok with anything, doesn't usually happen though I guess.

The orange machine did set a scary precedent, but I think this one will be different. We all make mistakes.

Whether you want to go fast, or look good is up to the individual. You can have both

OT: Wont you be needing a bulge of some sort?

And whats with the stocky fetish at the moment, keep the S pack rims, there not that bad; also should be less cop attention.

nice ride man, nice and clean! sell the bodykit IMO. if you want your car to look even hotter get it lowered more, nicer mags (not stockies!!!!!!), and maybe some lip spoilers for the boot and front bumper.

dansedgli: so your saying Wilson's car dosent look good? or everyone with GT-P mags dont look good?

Wilson doesnt have GT-P's. AU2's rock!

GT-P's arent my cup of tea. They look good on the right car though. A GT-P.

Im not saying they look crap on E series but in 6 months time they will be an eye sore as everyone will have them, just like the AU2's.

This thread isnt about my taste in wheels anyway. Sorry Scotty.

Back on topic.

Has it got an LSD? Seems like a good buy. No rattles would be sweet.

i was meaning Wilson's BA body parts. the GT-P wheels was something different. i know what you mean with the wheels how everyone is jumping on the bandwagon, there still a nice wheel tho and it dosent matter what Falcon there on IMO. all personal opinion hey!

ok back to you Scotty! should look great once you give her a cut 'n' polish!
