I personally think the Rebel kit is nice enough as far as side skirts and rear wing is concerned. I do like the XR50 front though. Wiring the fog or driving lights (whichever you choose to use) into the XR50 front bar is no big deal.

Rebel rear bar will look great wit the TS50. Check out DeathXR's R6. He has that combination on the rear and it looks very nice

Thanks Bucky, yeah, the T3 wing + rebel bar = good. I have the Pursuit nose, which has a similar profile to the XR50 bar, and no probs there either.

I think smaller wing ... ie: bobtail ... would look sooo much classier that going a large wing.

NO WING, or just a small lip spoiler.
