Hey ladies, n' gents.
Was wondering if someone might have a custom front bar, matched up with there vrx wheel arch flares at all? Wasn't a 100% sure you can just slap something on, and or sit there molding it to fit, so it'll be even etc.
Was hoping someone can shed a bit of light on that, as I might be after something a little different than the vrx front bar :woot:
*Edit; was for a tj magna lol
Thanks in advance!

Hey mate I guess you could give these few links a try:
Car Mate (http://carmate.com.au/)
Sinex (http://www.sinex.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=43_238&products_id=629)
There are few around, but a custom front bar is a rare find.

i've seen custom front bars styled on evo and skyline front bars, but at sizes that suit the magna. the few i've asked people about have had dimensions sent to companies overseas and had everything made and imported. seems silly, since it would have been cheaper to get it done here in aus. don't expect good ones to be cheap and if you're any good at 3D modelling you could design one and submit it to a workshop and save them the effort of designing it for you.

Car mate and sinex do very bad moulds. Only worth it if you have the skills to fix the mounting points

Do definitely need to take this into account - have seen 'some' complaints on this.

Hmm, I guess I could walk in and say what I want, but as wiggles said it could pose a problem with fitting.
I was afraid of that, as I haven't with a custom front bar with vrx arch flares.
I'll have to poke about n' see what I can come up with, I'm sure to let people know how I go about it.
Thanks for the quick replies guys, it's much appreciated!

Carmate is garbage.

TZABOY modified his JVM bar to take the Ralliart flares.
A custom bar is exactly that... custom. If you're paying someone labour to modify a bar for you, you'd be better to spend your money elsewhere imo.
