I'm fine with the design you got currently, but I see were aza's coming from, would look a little better / allow that little bit extra light through ... not that you can see anything out of the back window at night anyway >_>dstocks wrote:Ahhh, but that doesnt work as the reverse light doesnt cover that shape. If I made it that big, you would see half the taillight. Ive centred it as best I can so it looks balanced, but cant go bigger really.

Re: Rear Bar Design
After looking at the back of the car and talking to Dstocks, the way he has it is spot on. The pics just don't show the angels of the lights so it makes it look out.

Re: Rear Bar Design
Well,
Heres the next installment:
Firstly, a side view to see how they match up with the DCuatro sideskirts
And a few rear views:
Now pretty close to done. Just need to get the final finish now. Hope you like. Will post a thread in group buys soon.

Wow, I'm amazed how much it changes the look of the FTO, makes it looks bulkier and more aggressive, great job mate!

Re: Rear Bar Design
Noob question: GPvrs have stock quad exhaust? Or is that with custom exhaust?

Re: Rear Bar Design
And, is that Dwayne's daily drive?
Some of the pics looked like he had it in the garage for months.
Clue: Dusty rear windscreen, or is that due to the sanding, etc?

Re: Rear Bar Design
The dust would be from the 2-3k's of dirt road leading into his place.

Re: Rear Bar Design
Nah, thats from the sanding actually. But to answer the question further up, have 4 white FTO's. My Version R, My Wifes GPX, the Ute and one im wrecking. The earlier piccies are from the one im wrecking as I didnt want to damage mine unnecessarily. The last few are from my version R because I had to get the outlets for the exhaust in the right place:
FTO 1: My White Version R Aero
FTO 2: My wifes white GPX
FTO 3: My white FTO Ute (project)
FTO 4: Wreck 1 - White GPX
FTO 5: Wreck 2 - Purple GR
FTO 6: Wreck 3 - Black Version R
FTO 7: FTO Simulator - Black (project)
I think that will clear it all up. Version R normally has a stock exhaust as well, but 2.5 inches instead of 2.25. The one you see there is a full custom build (High flow cat, 2 x triple flow mufflers and quad tips). Oh and no, its not my daily drive anymore. Use the Legnum for that. Dont want to put too many kms on the FTO and given the fact that I normally hit 1000km per week, this would wear the car out far too quickly. All that dust happened over the weekend though.
