And he is asking in AU Falcon if anyone knows where he can get a part for an AU. Lets be a little more accommodating for fellow Ford lovers who have such great taste in cars!

Cheers,
Mike

sorry, maybe you are in the wrong board...this is aufalcon.com, rob_thomas84 is after a mod for his AU xr8, so he is in the right area. also there is a "B" in his AU, Bonnet, Bumper Bar, Badge....

besides, he was asking where he could get one, not other opinons on what you thought of it. BTW i think it looks good on the AU, really accents the low series bonnet

Rob,
We have a Sponsor in Ford Forums, which you will find a bit further dowm the main forum page who do these. They are undergoing an identity crisis atm but are known as AWC or Fibresport. (You can also find them at the scrolling Sponsor page above this page)

I like the Bonnet in question, but need to make my car perform a bit more like it looks, for now! It is on my list however, sometime!

You can be forgiven because you are only new, but around here, when someone asks a question, we try to help them.

If your after a bonnet bulge for your AU, as mnm96 said, try fibresports. They are our site sponsor and make what you want.

stockoau has given you a link to an item on ebay and they arent bad. My son got one from AWC and had it put on his EF XR8 and it looks neat. He paid $185 plus $20 delivery and panel beater charged $600 to fit and repaint bonnet.
Some charge a lot more it is a fiddly job. Hope this option was helpful.

I assume your car is not your user name then? If it is, you have a low series bonnet.

There is also a thread in Fibresports, asking people to sign up to order one. They need a certain amount of people before they start making them.
