$700 Australian? Too cheap.... The side skirts look out of place and the headlights aren't to my taste!

Almost looks photoshopped to me??

Those lights do look a bit odd.
Body kit looks o.k.ish

What he said. 0xyg3n's is another top car. Lowered on the right wheels with some colour coding is all you need to do. A few ST parts doesn't hurt either.

I don't mind the front bar, it makes good use of the WP fog lights too. The side skirts look like they're from a completely different kit though.

I saw those lights for sale on an Australian Website but dont remember which one, I do remember though that they were not cheap, something like $1200.00 a pair unpainted!!, they apprantly cost around 280 pounds in the UK which even on the current exchange rate of around $1.00=40p works out at about $700.00,....."I'm not too sure about them either.....bit way out there for my liking"

Nearly every Pom has the Morrette Headlights, and even in the UK they are not cheap as previously stated.

I actually got a quote for the body kit from Sydney Special Vehicles. 490 unpainted just for the front bumper, which isnt too bad but i dont really like its style the rear close up is even worse.. Give me a Turismo Kit anyday

700 for the whole, doesnt seem possible, might be 700 for one of the bumpers as a start price as the turismo kit from the uk is 3000 and the fron bumper is 700. the only good looking body kit in my opinion is the stock one from ford.!!! as all have said b4 me lower and rims apart from that the fez looks k. not my style though.

Like Scareybear said, the body kit looks okay-ish. It's not terrible, but it's a bit over the top. The side skirts are ok, but the front & rear bars do not suit the car at all. I'd take a Wolf kit over this any day.

And those lights! Those awful lights! My eyeballs are bleeding.
