well i guess i was lucky here is the cost front bar on ebay $400 sold my standard bar for $450 driving lights $44 from supercheap and made my brackets from right angle aluminium bonnet $370 from my mate who is a fibreglasser paint $150 that was for 1ltr of hifill 500ml hardner, 1 litre of cobra moonsoon blue 1ltr of hardner and 1 ltr of clear got a little extra just incase plus my dads a painter so good to have some spare so all up it cost me $520 or $970 if i didnt sell my front bar i was very happy with the price considering the prices of the bonnets and front bars on ebay if i was to pay there prices it would have been close to $2000 easy also my bonnet is not fibreglass it is my orignal dont like the fibre glass bonnets and just cars doesnt either lol thanks guys for the comments didnt think i would get much feedback on it but looks like i was wrong lol |
