To Fpv Or Not To Fpv That Is The Question?

[used_2_like_rice]

do what you want mate, my XR6 turbo has FPR stickers everywhere, GTP interior and maybe soon a XR8 bonnet.

Looks a bit messy with so many badges.Piss all the badges off and just leave the fpv ones on the front and rear. If its an xr6t then it deserves a fpv badge atleast. If its an xt with 300+ at the wheels then it deseves an fpv badge aswell. FORD PERFORMANCE VEHICLE,where it proud even if you havent got the fancy seats and body kit lol. Im sure with the money that seperates the f6 and xr6t you could do a great custom interior anyway.

If a T can out PERFORM and FPV then how is it not an FPV??

Oh FFS

Sorry lads, putting an FPV badge on a car that isnt a genuine FPV is lame in the extreme

I think this can be viewed two ways.

1) You have modified your XR6T, and there for making it a performance car, and it being a Ford, technically makes it an FPV. However,

2) No, it's not a genuine FPV, its just a Ford XR6T - And therefor does not warrant FPV badges, wheels look fine.

I swing more towards option 2, its a Ford not an FPV, but its mick and mike the differences. I have a BF F6, and was not happy with my Ford badges, so for $12.50 to my door, I got 3 stickers off eBay, and are blue and silver, like the FG FPV badges, that stuck right over my boot badge, front grille badge and steering wheel badge to dress up the fact that I drive an FPV, not a Ford.

So in a way, as smug as it sounds, us FPV owners sort of turn our nose up at Ford owners (Ha ha, that's a joke boys)

I'd Like an FPV F6; I do own a BF Xr6T and got hold of some genuine new Fpv gear eg. air box, intercooler, some interior, grill, badges (Grill and Boot)ect.

I would like to think of these items as being an upgrade and personalizing my ride, I'm not trying to make my car a mock up of anything or pretend it is an F6.

Rather, make the subtle changes to my xr6T( and that is how it is badged), To maybe suggest that if FPV did do an Xr6 T, this is what it may have looked like.

Look I know I am never going to have THE MAGICAL VIN NUMBER, but why should That stop me from liking the FPV product.

I have been told by Purist's that I should have stayed loyal to the brand.

What do you think?

I think that if FPV were lining your pockets then sure do all things FPV , but if there not like I suspect do things your way!

genuine FPV's arre getting cheap now if you keep you eye open you might find a bargain. Its nopt just a badge, remember you get a nice black folder with 'FPV' on it too that must be worth thousands.....

I'm sure now that the FG is out, the FPV branch is trickle feeding the market with

superseeded and old stock e.g. FPV badges and parts.

I supose if I wait long enough I'll be able to buy an official build number (there is blank HSV build plates on Ebay) Then I guess it will be an official FPV, just that it was mail order rather than factory built.

By the way got the folder, they are a snap at $80 bucks.

Cheers.
