bs888 Member 207 Member For: 22y 1m 8d Location: Canberra Posted 10/02/05 09:35 AM Share Posted 10/02/05 09:35 AM bs888, How do the LH pipes fit. Does the rear bumber have to be modified and then resprayed?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>The rear skirt has to be cut but my dealer has a template which makes it very easy, No paintwork is needed and only fussy buggers like me can pick it without knowing where to look.Take a drive to Thomastown or at least give them a phone call, you wont regret it!

In that time I came to realise just how commited Rob is to the Blue Oval!! It's people like me who benefit from Rob's passion for Ford performance and I know first hand that no matter how small any problem might be in the scheme of things if it is a Herrod product it will be put 100% right.I know that some will disagree with me! I don't really care! The guy is a legend as far as I'm concerned.Bazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DEVO Guests Posted 10/02/05 12:00 PM Share Posted 10/02/05 12:00 PM Seeing these pics just makes me regret my decision even more I was all set to run a twin pipe system on my XT when the budget tightened and the desire for a nicer tip won out. So instead of the twin pipes and mild steel oval tips I was going to get, I opted for one outlet with a twin stainless tip. I have seen a couple of cars done now, from standard XTs like mine, to XR6, XR6T and XR8s and they look awesome.Kicking myself harder now...

Guest DEVO Guests Posted 10/02/05 12:03 PM Share Posted 10/02/05 12:03 PM About the towbar thing- it could also depend on the capacity of the towbar- I think, but don't quote me as the ultimate source on this, that the lighter capacity might mount differently. I know that there was no problem in the leadup when I was talking about the twin system and I have a towbar fitted to my car. Got mine done by Rob Bliss in Geebung.
