i got sick of having no bumper on the vitara so i got off my ass and whipped one up out of a bit of scrap i had was just going to be a temporary one until i made a good one but im kinda happy with it except for the prop plate on top and was think of keeping it on.





what do you guys think.

If you continued the side of it with some 3mm steel plate you can use nutserts in 2 of the holes on the body to anchor it to. This is what I have done with mine and it protects the rear quater. If you need more Info I can post up pic's nad details. Later

That was my first idea. Then i cut one and put it on and it looked crap way to long for a wrap around. i am gonna paint the quarters black so they blend in a bit not too worried about it probably make another one after the calmini goes in and after i make some skid plates for it and after i make a front bar for it and after all the other jobs that i have to do for everyone else etc... so it'll probably stay on for along while.

Glad to see you have a plan, without a plan, shit just don't get done.
With a plan it may not get done on time but it is on the plan to get done.

That nutsert idea sounds great, mine is wrap around and there is a bit of flex in the design.
I brought a cheap nutsert and haven't tired it out yet.

have you got any pics of the brackets or how did ya mount it to the chassis? any pics

[banga]

i have the rear chassis with the plate on the back i picked up the top 3 bolts and the two on the face i was to lazy to make brackets from the tow bar mount. it was only ever meant to be a quick free rear bar. you can see the bottom 2 bolts in the pics.
