New front bar installed last night- JN Style from carmate :) No modification needed, just a simple bracket for the centre to hold it up. Solid as, and arrived in good condition. Manage to clear all the speed bumps in town, just a couple of driveways that i can't navigate anymore.

ohhh very nice, be sure to get some day time pics. your car is really starting to look very sweet. is it hard to get over speed bumps etc...

very nice needs a set of parras, side skirts and rear bar. but other than that nice work

Side skirts are on their way (vrx ones), but not going to add a rear bar till i have my exhaust set up finalised. I'm not a big fan of parras myself, so simply going to change to crystal vision globes and leave it as is.

Way too much chicken wire there..
Dunno...Looks ok but with all that chicken wire its just plain :/
Parras would make it look soooooooo much better.....defiantly put them in....

the vrx ones will look good, i don't mind the JN ones as well. you know you want parras do it... lol

Already said i don't like parra's, so they're not going in. As for the look- i don't want stand out, i want subtle. The mesh in behind the bar is there purely to hide the ugly radiator- if you have any other suggestions as to how to do this then please fire away!! I have kept the same them both in and out on the car- simple lines, white and chrome, so doing anything else to the bar would be wrong.

I'm a firm believer in "if it's what you like then do it", and i think it looks good. Everyone is so quick to say "get parra's", but i don't like them...

Someone do a chop for this lady to convert her please!
I mean of course these are just photos so I'm sure in real life it would look way different. my only suggestion would be to have black mesh.

Good to hear that carmate seem to have picked up their act and you didnt need to send hours getting the bar to fit.

Looks good, but could look better with the usual headlight "upgrade" and something to break up the mesh a little.

:stoopid: or stick a big front mount inter cooler there

Have you considered black mesh bonnie? it won't stand out as much

looks great! i've always liked the look of that front bar and it looks great on your car.

:D and you bought that front bar

waaaaay subtle! :D:bowrofl:

looks great though!

I have AJ, but I have a chrome rear garnish, chrome windscreen washy thingos, chrome definition on the interior, and want to keep the theme constant throughout. If i find some spare cash in the next month or so i'll see what the black will look like

if you want to chop parra's on my car then go for gold but this pic might be a bit better to use as a better angle. Jpegs car.

yur radcore; ill mention as a uni student i suggest getting someone to photochop it as could save you about a carton's worth of money.

Hahaha, been there done that, no longer a uni student, and very much worth the years of study while i was there. Now i can have my mesh and a carton to drink while i'm puttin it on!!

lower you car more now hehe looks ok i guess.. would look heaps better with black mesh i rekon. nice

Well I'm by no means a good photochopper, but what the hell ;)

JPEG will kill you.

:confused: Mate, no offence but for me- without paras and mitsu diamond logo, this front bar looks like it's from VP commo-bit fugly empty hole in the middle

yeah i can totally see the what you're talking about there.... :eh:

god some people are full of ****. Front looks good mate and I am with you on the paras. They look ok but just dont suit some setups. I have led parkers and 4500k globes and looks heaps better than just standard globes. The car looks sweet.

This front bar reminds me commo AERO kits.
Sure "eaglerock18 " front bar on the side is nicer than on Aero,
but middle nearly same.
