Hey mate, very nice car. I love the look of it without a big rear spoiler, looks very sleek and sexy

XF Falcon- 10-22-2008
Cheers fellas. Peeler yeah XFT ended up doing the tuning, I got 450HP on the dot, which is less than I was hoping for, but it still drives like a shower of shit and cleans up every car I've had a run with on the street (on my private road using professional drivers) hehe

DANG IT!

You beat me to it! Hahaha. I have the same idea for my xr. Ive taken the rear badges off, but havent got round to the spoiler or side badges yet.

At least i know what mine will look like now. Lol. They look alot smoother and aggresive without all that jazz on em ey. I think the spoiler gives it a boy racer look. ughhhh.

But regardless of mine, your car looks absolutely mint. Nice work man.

is your exhaust completely stock? from turbo back?

XF Falcon- 10-23-2008
lol Envi, great minds think alike tongue.gif

Pete, stock dump, "super high flow" cat, no middle muffler and only the rear stock muffler. Obviously not good enough to make decent power, mind you my engine didnt score the typhoon pistons and that, so I probably cant push it too far

Well, no proper photos yet cos the cars filthy as tongue.gif but thanks to Jeff I've now got some dish and some grip on the XR smile.gif

The XF scored the 19" GTP's but the car couldn't turn a corner without rubbing plus they looked too big on it! ha

So the XF downgraded to the XR's stock 17's and I think it suits it pretty well

looks trick dude both cars that is.
wouldnt be selling those GTP's would ya?

EF ECTIV- 01-22-2009
those rims look mint on the turbo... killer....

agreed the gtps looked too big on the XF,
the 17s look much better.... good shit...

Lil Regy- 01-22-2009
wheels look great mate.

i liked the XF with the ftrs better though

XF Falcon- 01-22-2009
hehe thanks all.

Foz, I'm definitely chasing 11's now, but it will be with a set of slicks most likely. Simon from XFT is going to let me borrow his set.

Gav, I'm probably keeping them for the time being, as I like the ability to swap and change rims depending on what mood I'm in tongue.gif I'm sure once money gets a bit tight I'll consider getting rid of them.

Regy, I was actually looking back at some older pics today and yeah the FTR's really suit the car for some reason! The main reason for doing the swap is that the FTR's have bald tyres all round so this was the easiest way to go legal again smile.gif

Kilma- 01-22-2009
The GT-Ps don't suit the XF due to lack of dish. I reckon the Speedys would look mint on the XF, but admittedly, they do look better on the XR6T.

Nice work Mike.
I have always HATED those BF XR wheels, but for some reason they look SO good on the XF. They suit it beautifully.
Now just get those rear centre caps in then more pics!!!

biggav- 01-23-2009
well im sure can hook him up with some good photos if mike comes out to the cruise tomorro night?
