They're all over the place, at least over here. 

[Dazzler]

I guess I just never imagined they would be strong enough!

[Dazzler]

Gee, I have never heard of a plastic bull bar before.

Here you go Daryl......

Thanks Jon.

[The Gonz]

That looks quite manly. Is there one for the FD already out there?

Gonz
No there's not no one makes one for any of the hyundai sedans(plenty of useless nudge bars) I am going to one day adapt one to Bruce,his will be pretty easy to do he already has production brackets fitted 

[The Gonz]

I await your impressive innovation with bated breath.

I await your impressive innovation with bated breath. 

Is that just ordinary bated breath, Gonz, or the upmarket, elite-type, master bated breath?   

[Just Rick]

Just a quick update,Alvin has been off the road now for aolmost a week,fitting this Roo Bar was a bigger job than I antisipated

The Brackets are finally fabbed up and sealed

(click to show/hide)

Mounting plates fitted and set to go

slowly getting the front sorted
Had to refit where the air intake was,at least it will get fresh cold air now instead of hot air from under the bonnet
The bar is now attached firmly to Alvin

I have done more today but haven't had time to get any pictures,I have got some of the lights up and running,I still have to pick up a small chrome grill for the air intake and once I am happy with everything ,I have to do some tidying up Body work,I have also been making some of my own custom centre caps for my mags as well in between other jobs

[asathorny]

That looks like the business Rick, good job 

I wouldn't have thought you'd cut a hole in the bumper Rick

I probably have enough tubing and filters here to have made something pretty decent for induction

[Just Rick]

I probably have enough tubing and filters here to have made something pretty decent for induction

the only way to do it Craig,bumper is stuffed anyhow from the last time I hit a roo,once happy with everything I'll finish off the body work,the bar aint coming off until either Alvin dies or is written off,as for the induction,tubing wasn't the issue,once I get the proper screen it will look better and where it is,I'll just have to clean my filter more often(have a cleanable Hi-Flow filter in the standard box)

I didn't realise the bumper was already stuffed, good job still though

That pesty Roo aint gonna be to happy next time you meet him

Masterbated breath just doesn't sound like something for which anyone would pay a premium.

[Dazzler]

Who's a clever boy then? You do aa great job with your projects Rick.

[Just Rick]

Finally got all the lights and additional lights I needed on the front(Extra Indicators) of Alvin

From The Front
One of the Centre Caps I am making
should be able to see the Roo's now.before I hit em

so next will be on the tidying up of the bodywork or replacing the condenser,whichever happens first

Looks great Rick it's even level

[Shambles]

Just need to find a few roos to test it all out

[Dazzler]

Wow! Great job Rick. Very enlightening thread!

[neptune]

Hey Rick...how many lumens is that light bar and square leds..?

[The Gonz]

[Just Rick]

Hey Rick...how many lumens is that light bar and square leds..?

Have to get the books out John,I know the LED wattages,headlights are 90W per globe,long bar is 120w,two small lights are only work lights 80W,and the DRL's are a measly 30wget back to Ya about the lumens all I can say at the moment is bloody bright 

[Just Rick]

Hey Rick...how many lumens is that light bar and square leds..?

long bar is 10800lm,the small square ones are 8600lm each and each headlight globe on high is 9000lm's

Looks like a good job Rick!! i like the LED lights too!! i have two on my old Toyota HyLux and seems to do a great job turning everything white at night like Flood lights where did you get the bar LED? who makes that one?
i have to do lot of night time bush driving now so know how important they are.
Have had a few close call's with roo's lately, & was a big Blue Roo that hit my first FD lot of damage.

Dolly's transformation is coming closer to completion

Is she called Dolly because you intend Parton ways soon?   
Or because she's a clone of a sheep?
