Default EL GT Front Bar

Hey guys,
Wondering if anyone knows of the little implications of fitting an EL GT front bar to my XH without having to own the prime Grill that almost has it's own post code.... wanna put that on then see if the EL/XH XR8 front bar and side skirts will fit, or even the SSV front bar.... Cheers

Good luck finding an EL GT bar. They are incredibly rare, and they don't have proper copies. There are kits which try to imitate the style but they still look quite different

As for if you did have one, the bumper would bolt on, but you'd find a massive gap between the bonnet and bumper. As the EL GT was based on a Fairmont, it had the high series bonnet. The grille was attached to the bonnet and extended down slightly past the headlights. The XH bonnet is unique only to the XH utes (It doesn't fit on any EF-EL Falcon) and stops at the top edge of the headlights.
