What bullbar should i put????

Post by guyph_01 » Sun May 09, 2010 7:43 pm

hi guys,

I've got my hands on this huge bullbar that i could make to fit my car.
I'm however not sure:S I like it being huge and looks like its goona instantly kill anything on its way but it may be just to big "ridiculous" The old one "fits" much better.

Anyway what do you guys think? Lol at the sticks holding the bullbar in place:)

hehe, na its not a turbo, i just stuck the pod under the opening. Maybe turbo when the engine blows:) Yeah looks like i'll be sticking with the old bullbar. Haha only red rocket told me to go with the new as i told him i might sell the old one if i put the new one on.

hehe i guess your out of luck red rocket, its been unanimously decided that the old suit best and i'm keeping it hehe!!

Hey, seeing as you don't seem to want this new massive bullbar, how much you willing to give it away for? How were you planning to fit it to the L. (My cousin may want this bullbar)

Well im still planning to make up the bracket for the new one to fit it properly to my l Series. I'll leave it a few days and then decide which one i like best and i'll sell the other:) but i'll definitely end up selling one.

yeah i saw that one, That why i got the new one when i saw it. the one i got is obviously from another car but is the same width as an l series. I wish it had the higher bit in the middle like that brumby. It would have been much better.

Ah well.
