The FiveM non-ELS police interceptor built on the scratch-made Bravado Buffalo STX8 delivers a fully modular patrol unit your roleplay server can configure into LEO, EMS, DOC, Federal, Unmarked, or Decommissioned roles in seconds. This is the 2010-era Buffalo STX8 reimagined for serious police roleplay — non-ELS lighting, 200+ tuning parts, an editable colorable callsign system, and asset-level optimization tuned for live servers. Scratch made by Dayashii with contributions from GTAWiseGuy, Tidemo, and JunkyWRX, every panel, lightbar mount, and trunk layout was crafted to feel like it belongs in Los Santos. If your server prides itself on lore-friendly fleets, this is the kind of standalone that makes a single car feel like an entire department.

🚓 Inside the FiveM Non-ELS Police Interceptor

One model, every patrol role. The Buffalo STX8 doubles as LEO, EMS, DOC, Federal, Unmarked, and Decommissioned through native extras and mod categories — no custom menus, no wrappers, no client ELS dependency. Officers configure their cruiser in-game: lightbars with ALPR attachments, slicktop or undercover setups, K9 splits, ram bars, antenna arrays, trunk loadouts, and a 5-digit colorable callsign that shows on the unit. Server owners get a single addon that replaces an entire spreadsheet of mismatched vehicles, all sharing a universal parts library that keeps every ONX cruiser visually consistent across the fleet.

🧩 Compatibility, Licensing & Notes

This lore friendly Bravado Buffalo police interceptor ships as a drag-and-drop add-on resource that slots into any common FiveM framework — QBCore, ESX, Qbox — without wrappers or framework locks. Some features require Game Build 3095, including the VMT_Lightbar category for custom ALPR and lightbar options; the base vehicle runs on standard builds. The universal parts library is shared with other ONX standalone models, so adding more vehicles from the same family stays lean instead of stacking duplicate assets across your server.

• No reuploading, resale, or rebranding of assets other than liveries and textures
• Redistribution outside your subscribed server(s) is prohibited
• Subscription based: No — optional
