Nice innit.

It's about 18 months old and I kept several 8'x4' sheets of ply on it for 12 months - allows the efflorescence in the blocks to escape. We then had it sealed so that nothing penetrates the blocks. Most oil drops disappear as it rains and any big patches get a dollop of washing up liquid.

There was a 2nd Scrapiron bumper on just after mine - think the 2nd one had no light holes (might be mistaken).

Nice looking rear there, the only other thing I would do is get rid of the plough and buy a detachable tow bar... does wonders for the departure angle at the back!

I believe so. The seller said he had a NATO hitch fitted before I bought it. If you wan't to measure the hole centre spacing, I will double check for you.

I am after a HD rear bumper with no lights in it though. I cant afford a new one. I have kind of made my own by ripping off the plastic bits whilst off road and selotaping the reflectors on! It passed the mot like it, although an advisory saying they were selotaped on! I need to use no nails or something similar I think! The bits of metal that used to hold the plastic bits I may angle grind off soon.

A proper HD bumper does look alot smarter though with no tape insight! :lol:
