Ignore the fact that it hasn't been painted. Whats everyones thoughts on this FG front bar for BA/BF Falcon. I'm still undecided. It's different and you dont see it around.

Remove the curves across near the outer edges of the centre intake and it would be pretty good.

Not a fan mate, leave it to the commo clan to put new model kits on older model cars. IMO i'd just put a b series fpv front bar on it would look alot better.

Looks pretty sweet, think an f6 ba bf front bar would look just as good and be easier.

something a bit different is always good to see, and with an xr8 bonnet it would look awesome. not a huge fan of the different colours but maybe match them with some gt stripes ??

no offence, but that kit looks terrible....

leave to the commodore brigade to put late model kits on earlier models...

It's different but leave it to the Commodore clan to put new model kits on older model cars. If you want to be different try fitting a front steel bar from a XY Falcon, now thats hot.

It looks a bit weird. I am suprised an FG bar even fits a BA as the front end appears completely different

If you want a FG, go buy one, If you want a BA FPV, go buy one. IMO people should not buy one car then change the kit to make it look like somthing it isnt. If you want it something you dont have, sell up and go buy the real thing

yea mayb the fg buldge will match the 'curvyness' of the bar and sum matchin decals... guessing thats a custom made fg bar to suit a ba/bf (not gen fg) tongue.gif

though id still go bf fpv gtp or f6 bar...

It's not about making it something it isn't - it's about improving on what you have. Sure, the wankers that put full Clubsport kits in their Commodores or Evo kits on Lancers are retards, but something like this is quite individual (so far) and actually looks pretty damn good (apart from mismatched colours, as already mentioned).

dont like it sorry mate, it makes the car look a bit bulky in the front end, and as said, your following the commonwhore brigade.

its the headlights that ruin it.. the bars look great on the FG's because of the headlight design... or maybe its because the gray was cut off before reaching the headlights... i think you should extend the gray to the headlights like the proper FG FPV's, it may help the look.

I dis-agree. I would put a F6/GT bar on my XR8 ute without a problem. I wouldn't do a full FPV kit, but the bars sure do make the front end look super hot. If I ever damage my front bar thats most probably what i'll do mamoru.gif

I'm not sure about the FG bar though. BA/F's are just so much tougher looking!

not a fan of that look. i would stay with a ba-bf series bar from a fpv model.

Looks mean mate. It does look a bit bulky, but with a bit of tweaking around it, it'll look tough. Maybe GT stripes and bonnet bulge like already mentioned.

yeah, i just thought i'd post it up to get some feedback. I was looking at the ba F6 bar and found this. I agree with most, the 2 colour doesn't look the best and it does look bulky. But it is different, just dont know if its different in a bad way lol
