Right guys, a mate of mine is wanting to have metal bars in his bumper. Its not to my taste and he knows it but hes made up his mind.
We have drilled the holes in the bumper but as its got a curve in it we need to curve the bars/rails. Is there an easier way to get it perfectly symetrical? is there any tools i could use? At the moment i we are just bending it ourselves and i'm not happy with it.
Cheers

Heres a pic of the front bumper so you can see the shape

works by putting the pipe you want bending into the centre of the spring and holding both ends and bending it. will give a more uniform bend that doing it manually.
