L-series nudge bar install
Posted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 9:54 pm
hey all,
i recently got my hands on a nioce shiny nudge bar (thanks D3vil), it still needs more buffing(now i have a dillema, how can i mount it?..some photos below..



i was thinking about bolting it through the bumper(and the steel behind it), but of course the bumper isnt square, it tapers off, so if i was to put it on, the bar would be sitting forwards.., i was thinking spacing it out with washers or something, but then there would be a gap between the bar and the bumper
i was also thinking about cutting the bar on an angle to get it flush...
any ideas or pics of othere people's installs would be greatly appreciated..
and i realise it should go through the recovery points of the car, but this is totally cosmetic, not practical(like the rest of my car!
)
