[quote][i]Originally posted by Steve[/i] Well the parcel is in Coventry so shouldnt be long now :) perhaps Monday if Im lucky. So pretty much finished my home made A Bar Dimensions I required, 86mm means it will line up with the chassis rails perfectly just like the real one. Cut a length then bent it up using heat. [img]https://scontent-a-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/10898239_10153027136875730_1919971006310350799_n.jpg?oh=2ef20ed85c54d3134fa218bd1a311788&oe=5523E33E[/img] Next I bent in the kink in the bottom of the legs, to give the fog lights clearance at the back, again the real one has this. Also glued the feet on, now these are massively bigger than they will end up being, they will only be about 7mmx7mm to match similar dimensions of the welded on plates of the real one. This will then be attached to the bumper by means of 3 M1.6 per leg into the bumper.
