In my opinion, Thats just an abomination of the ford logo I'm afraid...
Who would do this?? Granted, cash for people can be of short supply when trying to modify a vehicle, but thats just wrong... I quite liked the look of the EB's - You didn't need a bodykit for it to look tough, just lower the sucker... Obviously someone had far too much time on their hands. I like the highest bid though $1.04...

I don't care if people criticise EAs anyway. Mine isn't an EA, it is an EAII :Reverend: . It has been good to me, with only one blown headgasket ever, and doesn't overheat. Sorry for being off topic.

Thats disgusting! Not even worth $1.04. Its depreciated value with that bodykit on it, and the colour has made it worse.

Ray Stanz from Ghostbusters (cartoon) would like the colour:

I actually don't mind it.

With a set of 12 slotters it would look great.

This is the tale of a man, a very special man (or boy it's hard to decide), who was a HSV fan. He loved Skaifey just like his mates.

But one day his mates got VNs, a whole lot of VNs, all with there own primary inspirited colour. They would go to each others house and tack bits of HSVs to these humble Executives and Acclaims.

But Justin, poor Justin from Guildford couldn't afford a VN. Instead he found a Falcon EA, surprisingly road worthy and in top condition. In his twisted mind Justin imagined a great trick to play on his friends, turning this great EA into a strange Commodore Falcon cross bred thing. Just for sh!ts and giggles.

He began to sixaflex bits of old HSVs which were written off by their 20 something male drivers on wet roads primarily around off ramps and round-abouts.

But his dream quickly evaporated right before his eyes. Every HSV branded item he put on the vehicle turned it into nightmarish monster, a evil cross dressing type monster.

Justin couldn't keep it anymore, his VN mates witnessed him bogging up the front bar one day and instantly became his ex-mates. Justin didn't have much luck with the ladies, but now with this green monstrosity in his front yard, women took to walking on the other side of the street, not allowing Justin to serenade them from the comfort of his veranda like he did once, whilst wearing a mish mash of Target clothing inspired by Holden.

He couldn't take it anymore when one day a young man in a Cobalt Blue ED Fairmont which looked as if it was lowered with King Springs super lows drove past staring blankly mouthing the words "What the fu!k?"

Justin knew he had to sell it, for 5 dollars fiddy.

But there is a mistake, the car sold for twenty dollars fiddy. Which in the end the bidder convinced Justin to pay him to take the car off his hands.

Hideous. Kill it now!

Also noticed while side skirts and rear bumper look HSV, the front bumper looks like it's off a VS V8 Supercar. That car really is an E-series HSV!

Late model HSV kits are bad enough on VNs/VPs and VRs/VSs, but on an EA????
