Get a genuine vertex or a moulded one from a genuine vertex it will fit. Alot dont so if you get a style kit it may or may not work

kool cheers guys!
Is it just me or do they Vertex and BN front look identical?

I wanna see if I get get away with incorporating a vertex front with bn side and rear without it looking stupid.

Anyone out there using 'vertex style' front bar with factory reo fitted?

Yeah well aware of the ones on ebay.

My car came with the kit. But I found a place in Melb who says he can order a full kit for $1200 from US.
Unsure whether I should get a new kit or repair my one as it copped torture from my driveway.

Look at this and tell me if you see the difference.

yeah as Aaron has said mine is a replica Vertex kit,(should have rephrased that in my first post above that it was a copy lol) bought it from a WA member who was selling them on here a couple years back.... had no problems with it fitting 100% perfect with no cutting of the original reinforcement bar at all... its true though some replica kits are dodgy with fitment issues...maybe I was just lucky lol.... :-)

yep ive got a cheep copy had no probs fitting the front and rear bars they went straight on over the reo bars. But the sideskirts on the other hand were miles out they needed to be trimmed around the doors. But it is an easy fix though considering the amount of money ive saved.
