Default Would it be possible?

Just had a thought, would you be able to put a rear bar and side skirts form a BF Typhoon on an AU XR6II?

Then finish it off with the XR50 front bar?

Might look alright.

What are your thoughts?

with the right amount of money anything is possible...if you ask me tho i think it would look kinda funny...i think you'd be better off getting the XR50 bar and the rest of the TS50 kit, ie skirts and rear bar....but if you really want a BF Typhoon bar it may be possible....although i'm pretty sure the rear of the au's is more round than the ba/bfs

side bars shouldnt be too hard to fit. the rear bumper could be a bit different just below the tail light area (havent really had a close look) but the rest of the bar shouldnt be too hard to fit.
size wise it will be the same, just the clips might be in different locations and possible the tail light area might not match up preoperly.

they'd have to be cut shorter and modified around the end of the door trim. Would be a bit pricey to do i would reckon. Would look nice though.

Different wheelbase - you'd have to cut the side skirts.

I cant see why the side skrits wouldnt fit, both are pretty similar, may need minor modifications, but I reckon you will struggle to get a BA bar to an AU! But again, with time, and know how, anything is possible!
