Fist link didn't work.
I can't say it is the most attractive car. I thought puting VT kits on VN's were bad!! :tool: If the Calais front was put on it, I'd concider it.  :

that looks soo wired, i hate cars with modern, rounder body kits on older, square cars it just look so out of place and just plain ugly. why make an older car look like a newer car, why not just get the newer car in the first place, i mean for the price he paid for that conversion he could have got a cheap vt/vx

Yea i saw it the other day.
It does look a bit weird but thumbs up for managing to pull it off. I remember seeing something about BA headlights in an EA, among other things... |

At least the Escort Panel Van is professionally done compared to the red VK in the second link! Just goes to show that the Commodore as a whole hasn't changed much from VK onwards.

I'd have to agree with most here and say that LOOKS absolutely shocking, though i do give credit for all the work that wouldve been put into it...
Oh and BTW i saw this AU with a BA front on it... looked nuts. Twas at fowles auctions, not for sale though Last edited by Tiga_EL; 03-03-2005 at 05:51 PM. |

nice try, if it was done properly it wouldnt look bad at all, but its not been done properly so it looks shit.
to do it properly he'd have had to narrow the bonet and front bar about 5cm. then everything might have a chance of lining up... it looks verry wrong in the wheel arches, there is just wayy too much room.... plus the VL Aero kit just doesnt suit the front. |
