Hey guys,
Been thinking of adding a tow-bar to my XR5. Only one thinking is playing on my mind, how it will look. Does anyone here have a pic of their tow bar on an XR5? I've read some people have them but haven't seen a pic. Just wondering how it will look with the rear lower "defuser" design that the XR5 has. Thanks in advance for the help  : Greg |

They cut into the rear difuser, but it's under the car, so i'm not concerned about it.
I took these quickly in the garage, Sunday I am at a car show, so I'll get better photo's. But for now, you can see how it looks. To give you a fair indication. I'll get some lower shots with the back in full view

Thanks for the pics mate, looks better than I expected.
I can see the part of the diffuser they have removed, I agree its not something I would worry about. |

No probs. And to be honest, you hardly even notice it. I see the tow bar first and they did a fairly good job on the cut. So I'm happy with it.

Hey, Bucknaked, I'll come and pester you for opinions at Marques In the Park.

Exhibitors entry from 8:30 am, enter via carpark off King Edward Terrace) **NOT** at John Knight park in Belconnen. |

I must have missed you yesterday. We were parked at the end. Out of curiousity, does your last name start with a "C", and you have a greenish coloured Capri?
