    Yeah I still have the mightyboy but I was getting funny looks driving David to daycare in it. I needed something with 4 doors and this was cheap and cheerful. I bought it about 6 weeks ago, has cost me about $3500 all up after I tidied a few things up. Should put some photos up I spose....

    Thanks Geoff, had used K&H for the old bars, but this time used motospray as that's what they had at Autobarn in the city. The dude there said that they are not selling K&H anymore due to some disagreement with 3M.

    Pretty happy with how it turned out though. The bar was very very sad to begin with, but after filling in alot of cracks and holes and then priming and sanding a few times, it's respectable.

    Still looking at what to do about the gaps on the sides, but it will probably be a strip of rubber or sorts running up the edge wheel arch. Hopefully narrowing to a point about half way up. Just depends what I can find!

    I've been having issues trying to get k&h too since 3m bought them out.
    Motorspray looks good though. Wasn't sure if it had texture aswell, headlights look good mate. I'm after some kouki lights too. Hows the engine coming along?

    I actually had 1/2 can of K&H left and thats what I used to paint the plastics on the front lights. Let me know if you find any K&H does have a better textured finish to it.

    Engine is here now and I've got a few weeks of next month to install it and do the wiring.
