Contact newgel at newgel.com.au. They make them, but i believe that you cannot get them with the XR lights, that would have to be a custom job.

Anything can be done for the right money. Joining of 2 bars is easy enough as long as you want to spend the money on cutting up 2 bars. New Gel Fiberglass bar is $650, EL XR bar top $200?, if you are interested let me know.

It will look good once the XR bar is joined to the typhoon bar.

Hope it gives you the motivation to get the project happening.
