But you could make your own....

[nandor85]

i think no 1 wants to make there own lol

[jonno_racing]

just a point... at the front where it will connect to the windbreaker, u need to make a lip... my tourno cover/windbreak leaks like nothing elce! because watter just runs straight in!

[nandor85]

yeah thanks, i have thought of that and im going to buy 1 from mu canvas and get my mates father to mod it so it sits right back to the front bar on my roll bar so i can recline my seats. might even see if he is interested in making they up and if i do sell the hard backs mayb sell them in a full kit. or just mod the hard back so the mu canvas 1s attach snug

well getting there heres some more pics

well ive cut the bar holes out got the humps smoothed out and starting to put sides on then routing and got something extra im putting on it just to top it off make it look better

[anDy86]

nice work buddy i'd be keen for a lwb one too!

[nandor85]

ill see how this 1 goes first be i decide weather ill make a lwb 1 as theres alot of work involved in the molding process etc

[nandor85]

sorry about no updates for a while guys i just been spending alot of time doing final sanding etc and making it all smooth b4 i start molding as the more work i do now the cleaner product will come out of it in the long run

so so much sanding hehehhee ova it but well worth it

will get pics up soon

[atari4x4]

it's looking good.

just a thought, with the holes for the roll bar, will you have a plug to fill them when laying the glass as some people wont be running a cage?

[nandor85]

yeah ive still got the pugs for them so when ive made mine then i can plug them up on the mold and will be ready to go again

looks a bit different now

[nandor85]

well here pics changed my first draft a bit so here its is

as u can see everything is not fitted yet its still able to be removed for any changes i decide i want to do

i also need to cut the corners out and just a bit more finishing

[lukes_89]

it looks awesome id be keen on a lwb one depending on price and shipping up here

[alien]

hey - love this... its awesome.

i reckon slope it back a few degrees - so when rain hits it, it runs towards the back of the car, will also stop any pooling. Then add a 20mm lip so studs can be screwed in to attach a rear softtop from MU-Canvas =)

one last thing - how are you going to address the standard targa support bars??? you know the 45 degree ones that go from the targa bar down to the tub?

[nandor85]

well my car doesnt have them i might have to find some1 with 1 and see if i can mod it to fit

[5ierra]

I'd be very keen for a LWB one

[BlueSuzy]

With the rollbar holes.. How are you meant to get into the tray with a rollbar at the back?

[nandor85]

ur funny its sort of like the how the hilux has the bar recess on them i just havent cut it out yet have a look at the oringinal drawing and u will see what i mean

the center section that opens up and the sides where the roll bars side in stays flat

that roll bar is just for wank factor, from memory it doesn't even mount to the floorpan at the rear...

who makes a roll bar from 3" stanless exhaust pipe

[stockman]

Looks good apart from the scoop things.

[nandor85]

its not from exhaust pipe it was done at aaa tubing its about 3mm thick tube just have to finishe the mounting thats why i have held off cause i know i was going to make something like this first then sort out all the mounting

He's gotta add rigidity to it somehow though.

I reckon he's doing an excellent job... definitely patient.

[nandor85]

spot on bagnkat otherwise i would have to make it thicker and then weight more

[BlueSuzy]

Its good that your trying don't get me wrong. I didnt see the 1st page drawing. Now i know what your doing.

My 2c worth:

I have never seen a stock option rollbar go to the back like that.
I saw 2 yesterday in coilys, 2" or smaller alloy tube, front bars to floor, and rear bars to rear of wheel well. Not floor.
Both were marked Genuine Suzuki Accesories.
At a Suzuki specific wreckers.

Id make no holes. Then the buyers can customise further if needed. There are too many variations in roll bars etc. (although the holes would be good as cupholders)

[nandor85]

the holes in it are for myself i have a 2 piece bar in the back if i make 1 for otheres there will be no holes
