wow there expensive!!!!!
sure the dude has invested a fair mount of $$$ but $1300 for 1 guard starts adding up quick when you get a left and right and a bonnet that's $3900 and you still need a radiator support
on the other hand if you want a perfect guard to just paint and put on, no f'n around then i spose it would save a heap of time and you'd know it's right?

I happily paid $800 for a HG GTS guard that is really good but still needs minor work. If the repros are perfect then to me $1200 is fine, except on a concours car.

I have the opinion of,that unless you have a "concourse" car from the beginning then it
would be probably impossible too construct one with all the missing data and pedigree proof needed
for every single part.I do think that the price is up to the individual.($3600 for the front clip)
remembering what the cars sell for,I would rather the repro front than a 100 owner"fixed up"front....just my opinion.

if they fit well with no probs then they will be very handy even at that price . They have complete door shells for the xy/xw fords at $700 so u would expect they will have the other ht parts in the future as well . All up including the doors , gaurds , bonnet , its almost 7k and no hard yakka with welding etc for most of the car . Would love to here from any one who has purchased any and there fit quality !

they look good but no one seems to know how good they fit & no one wants to be the first to loose out .catch 22 |
why drink & drive when you can drift & slide |
