My XR8 has the bi-plane (I think they were recalled...??). Stands out from the crowd and makes the **** less droopy.

My bias compels me to vote for the AUI bi-plane. I like it on the AUI XRs...

T3 without a doubt. We need something similar again, gives a great connection with the racecars.

I don't like spoilers. I wish spoilers were a no cost delete option.

Bootlip definatly gets my vote, or nothing at all as i like the full sleeper look. Big Wings just make cars look like shopping trolleys IMO leave em for the rice.

The one on the AU in the other thread. The "OVERSIZED, PLASTIC, THUMBTACKED ON V8 SUPERCAR SPOILER".

i believe you can still get them, they are pretty much the same as the normal one but are a fair bit longer.... and have SVO embossed into them at i think the lower right side...

Now let me think!!! What will I vote for?

IMO the AU1 full body kit is one of the most agressive kits Ford produced. It's a shame they did not continue the same agression in the other series of AU XR's, as the AU1 was a progression of the EL kit. Lower them and you have one tough looking Falcon!

The greatest Ford of all time didn’t even need a spoiler, that’s the GT 40 MK 1. :

On the topic of spoilers I’d have to say the BA GT.

I think the AU2/3 XR6/8 spoiler, makes the biggest improvement to the back of the car than any of the other models listed. Not sure if that makes it my favourite but it is the one that offers the biggest improvement over not having a spoiler at all IMHO.

Isn't it funny these wings are battling for the runner's up places then again a ESeries wing will gain one spot for sure :evil_laug

I'm biased, but come on! Ain't it beautiful! So subtle, yet so striking and so right!



EB-ED Bootlip!!

Other than that T3 obviously! Then the bootlip on the AUIIs, with those little side bits set'em excellently.

Pity about that middle support on the BA GTs, whats the go with that?
