x2 If i could make one comment without offending you, it would be that the crossover bars and uprights are a bit tall. It could look a bit neater if it were inline with the bonet height maybe?? Just my opinion so please don't take it to heart, it looks really neat and definately better than anything I could make. :P

Only reason i went that tall is so the bonnet has some protection and makes it easyer to see where the front of the car is. In the real it looks ok as it only sites up the thickness of the bar above the bonnet. The pic is more looking up at the bar so it looks a lot more.

I do have to utes

But the white one in the pic is my mates who took the car out the first time with the new bar on and hit a tree on a hill climb. It held up great.

Pm what u want and what sort of bar.
With out cutting me short its hard to say on what winch are u using and whats involved in fitting it to my bar.

What would someone be willing to pay for a bar like this as theres many hours involved and dont want to scare people away.

No mate, I like my bar. Just saying these ones would have to be worth that I guess.

ahhhh I see, I almost bought the same bar as you, the guy on the phone said $300, when I went there he said $450 and I didnt have that much, would budge on price cause they were built by someone else and he was just selling them for him...
