The brake kit comes complete with all the mounting hardware. Would think a bush mechanic would find them pretty easy io fit.

No tinted tailights available for the FG that I know, looking at doing a swap with someone for their FG XT headlights that have blacked out surrounds. Will put one on to see how it looks.

Looks good mate, you done now or still got more to do?

Are they easy for a bush mechanic to fit ? They look great

Are tinted lights available or are they do it yourself 

Neither.

The FG lights are pretty well put together, you won't be able to pull them apart without breaking them or melting them.

All done for now, very happy how it turned out.

I should mention that I assumed it was car specific kit but it's just for sheets of the tint film.

I do think the monster kit would out perform the 6 spot Brembo kit but do you think you would use them to that level?

For the street the 4 pot brembo fronts would be more then adequate.

Maybe not, initially there was the notion that the monster kit fits behind the Ford G6E 19" wheels(I contacted Harrops before purchase of the car and brake kit and they guaranted they would, even the WA state distributor for Harrops were advised the same). At this point the outlay for the monster kit was still much cheaper than brembos and a change of wheels.

Got so far down the track with one stuff up after another that I just wanted to see it thru.

In hindsight might have gone a different path. But more than happy how the car turned out though.

I do certainly think the cars are underbraked stock and once tuned definately require a brake upgrade. IMO
