How'd those rims go but? 20P with 33's will be a tight fit methinks..

i havent actually had a chance to try them on yet xP haha sad aye
there will definatly be scrub, nothing a 1/4 inch spacer and longer wheel studs wont fix maddog

ok this arvo i fitted the XROX bar and wired up my LED's with LED stabilzer boxes to make the indicatora flash normally again

its still standard height and will be til the 19th, so it looks a bit funny atm with stock height and stock rims

TOYOTA bar removed




got help from my lovely lady Bel to undo the bolts when i held the bar to pull it off
she thought it looked broken
i rekon it looked like an alien, ones of the ones in the movies that has a humanish face but no nose...random i know but thats what i thought



and here it is,just got it done as it was getting dark





doesnt look toooooo dorky

whatcha rekon????

Dam I think it looks great, but I would spray paint the white parts showing through the bar, black.

cheers boss

Really like the Xrox bar mate.....looking good

Not a big fan but I guess it's horses for courses. You wouldn't want to smack anything too solid. Looks a lot better than the factory alloy thing though.
