well overall you have done really well.

have seen alot of ppl "experimenting" but this is first class.

Sorry if I have missed this anywhere but what are your sides and rear?

also, how much lower is the new far to the stock bar?

cheers

lol.. thanks.. the bar is not perfect by any means..... BUT.. atleast i can say with help it was hand built.. not baught... :wink: and a one off bar.... so far!... lol

The side skirts on my car now were supplied and shortened by "paulc".. with help i filled in the join... (where the cut to shorten it was).. and trimmed them to suit the e-series shape sills... they are BA SR side skirts... and are 40mm shorter than noral length...

50-70mm lower..... having low suspension does not help.. but im use now to being careful apon entering or exiting driveways and speed humps... rollling on 20's seems to sit the car up a lil higher than say on 15s... lol

Yeah, the BA bar is off the car, has been for a few months.
I've repaired it but need to do a lot of sanding and respray it.
I'm looking to respray the whole car so i'm leaving it off until then.
the rear bar got ripped off the car doing some off roading so the paint got scrapped then aswell.
