Hey guys

currently in the middle of deciding what to do with my car. Needs some body fixing done, and im going to do either
a - vertex kit & spray
b - keep stock front + lip, add skirts & rear lip
c - keep body totally stock and just fix it.

cant make my mind up, was wondering if anyone has added skirts & a rear lower lip but kept the std front? if so pls post :-)

the car is ford blue print colour

My first TT had stock front lip, then i put on side and rear skirts. The was at stock height too. Looks not too bad.

Last TT i had full series 2 Vertex kit. It looked MAD for sure, but i was always paranoid about my car when going over speed humps, especially on/off driveways. MAX angle at crawling pace all the time when driving over them...

I have just stock front lip now with current TT. With all the experience i had, I would recommend ur 2nd option. It will look good and wont cost too much. If u lower ur car too, it will look very hot. Vertex kit is for show cars, it will give u looks for sure but also with lots of headaches considering oz road conditions.

yea Freeman i agree - love the look but as a daily driver i know it will get skanked up eventually. The car is already lowered, and will be getting bigger, as yet undecided rims soon

anyone got pics of a 91 front with 97 skirts & rear?

Hey Kurt

Front bar is standard and the lip ius a original Hiro lip, I got it with the car but there was someone making copies of them. Have not seen any other original Hiro ones around.

Front bar is getting modified with the middle hole being cut out to make way for the FMIC and the number plate placed onto one side :-)

How much did your rims set you back kurt?
