Jorden Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Cheers boys. Yea i know what you mean about the turbo six, i own a ba turbo and fuck its fun to drive The body being in such a good condition was defo one of the reasons i snapped it up so quickly, so many these days are just neglected and rusty as shit, or end up like the below...........

yetchh Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Butler auto Mart on stanmore rd my have a falcon louver.. they have a few hanging around above the front door.. Quote
Jorden Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 I did try them, nothing Ford left unfortunately, even spoke to Mr Butler himself! Quote
Jorden Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 please do not tint. Easy decision then! I went to butlers and brought some headlight protectors, inside was Aungers old catalouge with louvres in it im being taunted Quote
Threeonthetree Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 You should buy the second pair of headlight protectors. If anything ever happens to yours, you'll have spares. And if you sell the car before you use the second set, there will be others out there who will buy them off you. 1 Quote
Irit8u Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 Hi we make those headlight covers at work.we made most of the aungers stuff years ago and I'm sorry to say I smashed about 45 of those louvres on the first of December they had been sitn on shelf for 20 years or so.I'll try see if I keept any when work opens up.

Jorden Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 Yea i was considering going back to get the second set, they're cheap enough.

Ogre Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 Oh this is fantastic!!! How much travel do you have in the rear before bump stop? There is an easy fix with modifying the top of the strut tower. Did it on my XE and made the thing alot nicer to drive. If you find any louvers let me know, been after a good one for a while. Ive got an XF parts ute if you need any little parts. I pretty much cant use and body panels or interior on the XE. Quote
Jorden Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I do need a few interior/dash trim bits like the speaker surrounds etc, ill flick you a pm when i go have a proper look What did you to the the suspension? fill me in! Quote
SOHC Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I had a molded carpet cover for the dash in my XF, I got it from the wherehouse, I really liked it, it was like riding in a taxi. Quote

No problem. The parts i have are the tan interior im pretty sure. "Megatowers" I used a bit of 75mm long 100x4mm tube, took about an hour to weld, clean up and paint. Doing this also means i can achieve a shit load more slam if need be. I recon 50mm long would be more than enough even. If the car is FULL of people and stuff it actually gets so low after bumps that those tiedown loops next to the lower rear arm location point hit the ground. Bits of road and sparks flying. Pretty LOL but probably not the best thing. Thats why i think 50mm would be better. 1 Quote
