Default Body Kits?

Hello everyone, i'm new to aufalcon.com... I just joined and Had my car posted in the gallery

I've had my AUII forté for about 2 and a half weeks now, and I love it...

Anyways, i'm looking at getting a body kit for my car... and I would like to know what options are available to me? I know about the C2R kits, and I think their AU Kit looks amazing, However, I noticed there are no prices on their site (not that I could see anyway) does anyone have an idea of how much it would cost? (Just the kit itself, not fitted that is) I would like to keep the original grille if possible, just to be different (every AU i've seen with the Kit has the C2R grille)

Also, are they any other kits for the AU I should consider?

mate, congrats on the purchase. I'm suprised that nobody has beaten me to it but for body kits you should definately try AWC. Can't beat these guys for body kits. They've also got their own section here on the forums so check em out

The main kits are TS50 / C2R / Hawk (Hawk is only really a front bat). Check out www.awcinfo.com. I believe the C2R costs around $2500.

thanks for the info guys... i'll be sure to check those kits out!

Edit: I just checked out the AWC site... and I love the kits there, I'd been searching for a place that sells TS50-style rear wings for a while, and I finally found one!

I'll put another recommendation in for AWC. Adam and the guys are great. Bought my whole kit off them. Great service, quick delivery time, good quality moulding.

Whilst your there check out the XR50 front bar NO one else makes these front bars, Its Adam's little pet project

I must say I do quite like the XR50 front bars they look great...

I've made the decision for the TS50-style wing, now I just need to decide which front/rear bars and side skirts to get! (oh, and save the funds that is!)

welcome to the forums mate.....keep in mind that the C2R isn't a fibreglass kit, thats why its more expensive.....

the AWC XR50 looks hot too ;) but would have to be matched with fat style TS skirts imo.

G'day... Also the when you buy the C2R kit, it includes mesh, and when you get it fitted by a C2R dealer, it comes with a warranty on the parts & on the service.
