I have an EB GL and soon I am going to put XR6 Headlights and grille setup, an S Pack Dash and some seats from an EA "S" Pack. I am going to paint the lower half of the bumper bars and may EVEN put an "S" pack badge on the back. I also have "S" pack moulds to go on it.

I don't believe I am making an XR6, just making my car look the way I want.

Exactly right. If everyone does the same thing, things are going to get very boring around here!

Pickles in ACT have been having XT's for as low as $11750 (fixed price cars) with 75-120k's on them. The BA XR6 I donated to them must be up for sale soon, it'd be a good wreck to get your hands on!

11750....geeps

who gos for looks
who gos for luxury
and who gos for performance when getting a car?
(which one dominates)

not taking my faker XT GT, EF falcon or Tickford badges off I like them. And its all about me, my car, my mods. Why should I worry about what anyone else thinks about badges I put on my car.

I think there is a lot of confusion with the wording, fake in it's real meaning would be some one building up a car to represent something it is not for a profitable gain, where as reproduction is where a car is made to look like the originals and is stated as that ( a reproduction ) such as the GT,s Cobra's and even the older XR's etc and is fine.

Anything in between is probably placed in the modification catagory and is as people say up to the owner.

just my 2c
