Ring the RTA in your state for a definitive answer.
Whatever advice you get here is not going stop you from getting a defect. |

Wrong forum for this post, and wrong forum for your FS post.

so I called RTA and also checked with the Australian Design Rule just to make sure. The main problem with gt-wings is they are considered sharp objects. In NSW edges with radii less then 5mm are considered sharp.
Size wise they are actually not a problem as long as your car fits in the dimension specified on the ADR its ok. |

thats stupid crazy. even if its feasible, common sense dictates that the rear bumper will hit them first.
what really chaps my ass are laws that we have to follow but cops dont. the biggest one is tint. 50% is the legal limit here however on cop cars they run 15-20%. |
