No, they don't match due to the different electrostatic and thermal conductivity properties of Plastic V Metal.Originally Posted by defective
It makes the orientation of the metallic pigments lay down differently.
PPG do different formulas for Plastic V Metal to compensate.
The Bars are painted away from the main paint line at the molding manufacturer Venture.

LOL, no i've never liked having to nanny cars or avoid certain roads or uses because they're too low.
Looks good, i couldnt get that in my drive without dragging the front bumper off it though.
On the wheels and tyres, clearly they've gone for a larger rolling diameter, wonder by how much? Falcons have long looked like they needed a larger dia tyre to fill out the guards.
Can the speedo ratio be easily altered with FG?

With factory size they can, just a change to the parameter via computer.
Understand the logic, no worrys of bottoming out etc....it wouldn't just be the front bar the back bar would drag as well lol..pairs !
Wheels looking like 20's.
Altering speedo ? Norm on the T3 my speedo hasn't been touched, fitted 19's 20's countless times.
Sat nav speed on freeway countless times has been out by a beees dick, past/through countless radars etc never been done whats the problem.

Yeah its not so much the rim diameter but rolling diameter. As you know if you compensate with aspect ratio you can go up in rim but keep the rolling dia the same to keep the speedo accurate.
This car looks like its gone larger on both.
Id be interested to know if he had clearance issues at all too...
