Yeah I thought your new car was pretty clean as well. Love semi stock looking cars that are 10years plus old that look like they just came off the showroom floor

Very nice.
Sucks about the mud flap marks. Mine has them. It must almost be scary loud.

Yeah I know, it ruins the look of the rear end.
I left it on there coz I've been rear ended twice in my old car (VN Commodore) and it saved my rear bar. Thankfully coz one guy wasn't insured.

I'm making a stand and leaving my mudguards and towbar on. Do the mudflaps really look that bad? and one of the great things about our falcons (apart from the really awesome show or drag cars) is that they are ordinary everyday drivers that just happen to look pretty awesome and go well. so to hell with it. towbar stays. although saying that. dude. whats with the mini darth vadar helmet on the thing? looks better without anything. untill it goes rusty. great car by the way. mines quite similar (falcon though). but not as awesome wheels.

Kinda, you unscrew the old EB one and screw on new EF-EL one, getting the rod the selects the gears the correct length is a bit more tricky. You either need to make a new one or add to your current EB rod. I bought my EF T-bar with an already modded rod

Mrngo, I did that to my EB. I added an inch roll pin inside the handle and made adjustment with the nut and it looks quite good
Will have to get some picks of my car and post. It isnt *sic* as you blokes say but it isnt too bad
