Feeler: FRP.com.au Products / ECB - East Coast Bull Bars

[ForealBoreal]

I am putting out a feeler for a potential group buy on some FRP.com.au fiberglass products for the 40, 60, 70, 80 and 100 series cruisers.

They have a variety of products ranging from replacement body panels, fender flares, battery trays and overhead consoles for each series of land cruisers.

I also have access to importing ECB - East Coast Bull Bars.

At this moment I do not have any price lists. I am just trying to get a feel who would be interested in their products if I was to organize freight or a container over to Canada.

lots of stuff there for the 40s and 70s. I know Robert would be interested in the flares for the 60 depending on price - the trees really liked his.

 

[ForealBoreal]

I'll post up what I can find
I really want to get some of the hoods for to 70 series. I know of a few that would love to get one.

 

[Granite Grinder]

Wow, I had no idea the hoods wore out

 

[ForealBoreal]

Here is what the Hood looks like.
The guys build no longer has the finished truck photo. It really is a nice touch.
Would really help my future top mount intercooler

Or you could just chop and add a raised scoop.

Mat if Rob needs flares, he'll likely be better off with something that bends when he hits a tree or rock - like rubber ones. Just go old school with garden edging or you can buy the fancy stuff from Australia that looks purdy.

I am not finding scoops I like to suit the 70 series hood. Everything just looks out of place and goofy.
I am not too big of a fan of the whole patrol scoop thing.
These are clean but costly.
If I can get one here for a cheap price I will down the road....

 

[ForealBoreal]

few finished shots of one. Would look real hot on my 77
Would love to have my 75 done similar to that.

^^^Dayum!

I keep looking at that hood and just can't get it. Doesn't work for me...

 

[ForealBoreal]

I think the patrol scoop fits the 80 series far better than the 70 series.

 

[sailor]

I mean- the 70 is pretty square cut. The curvaceous 'glass hood scoop seems alien to me. But then I don't tend to like hood scoops unless they say '6.6 Litre' or 'Cowl Induction' on the side.

You should hit up Lance for your group buy. He loves all of that scheize, in fact, the more bumps,lights, scoops and louvres the better. And did I mention he will buy anything? Especially if it can be shipped to Point Roberts Wa. He loves it there. You should see his garage- looks like a small Princess Auto store with his collection of Power Fist crap...(funny that that brand name appeals to him so powerfully...)

 

[ForealBoreal]

another 80 series with a patrol like scoop.

A 77 with a STI scoop. This looks a little awkward in my opinion.

 

[ForealBoreal]

New Tacoma front end 70 series.

The 80s hood scoops in the pictures don't look factory enough for me to want one. I don't understand Graham's repulsion towards hood scoops, he was drooling over this Chevy Caprice with this 12" high full length forced induction hood scoop we saw driving into KMS. He said it reminded him of the glory days when he had longer hair and bangs.

 

[sailor]

Yep- that was B.i.t.c.h.i.n'

Wanted to have another look at their product line but it comes up as "account suspended"? Anyways, was wondering about the 45 top they have, and how it would compare to gozzard.

I like the Patrol scoops but that might not be an objective comment. ;p Most high mount intercoolers would have an electric fan on them. So all you need is a hole big enough to flow sufficient air to the fan. Those large scoops are just more surface area sticking up and begging to hook a branch or fill with crap or grab water as you do a deep water crossing.
