Post by: hairyasswelder on March 20, 2008, 10:38:21

Decided that the piece of tube lying around was just right for a tubular bumper  :doh:

Looks a bit different compared to the 'before' pic  ;)

Thinking it might have needed a slightly bigger mitre to bring the ends in a bit tighter  :doh: but it not finished yet  :roll: will be blast and powder coat when it is  ;)

What do you think?

I could still fit the old A bar but looking at it now I not sure if i want it  :? have kept it close to the grille to keep options open but may have spaced the spots out too far now.
Might finish this one then make another to iron out the little bits i not happy with  ;)
