Default Fitting BA XR Ute rear and side skirts to an AU Ute

Hi guys,

Like the title suggests, can you purchase and fit the BA XR ute side and rear skirts to a stock AU ute? Especially as far as the rears go, I don't see any issues. Thanks!

Should fit, the cabin skirt should just about fit to..

Id hate to price them up tho, would cost a load id think.

Get a AU kit from AWC mate, alot cheaper and will suit the car!

You'd have to get them painted as well... Thanks mate, I'll pass that info on to my mate with the AU ute who wants to do this.

I am getting the Pursuit 250 side skirts from AWC for my AU ute ... they look to be the best ones that I can find.

The rear section probably but the front section will not - the front guards are different at the bottom between a AU and a BA on the AU they are straight and the BA they jut out from the door to the wheel

was going to say the same. BA front guard is longer in front of the door than the AU
I wanted to get ba side moulds for my AU but i went and measured my AU, then measured dads BA XR6T, and they didn't line up right.

Thanks for the input guys. I told my mate and he's going to check out the AWC situation. BTW, might be adding another car to the stable.... I'll keep you all posted! Needless to say it's a V8 and manual....
