Very , errr , robust! I actually quite like that.

I absolutely love looking at the work you are doing, please keep posting when you can.
The bumper looks great, but not 100% sure of the lower tube loop at the moment. Absolutely agree its better than the first loop, but I just see a big smiling mouth when I look at it ...:woohoo:
Not saying its bad in any way and sorry for this feedback as you never asked for it.
How about reducing the loop height and adding an angled lower sheet guard to the chassis?

Just thinking out loud, carry on and ignore me.

Criticism is welcomed. It does look very much like a grinning face at the moment. puts me in mind of this character:



The lower tube hoop goes as far as it does so that it just covers the chassis outriggers that remain. The original bumper sticks out a lot further than this one does, which means the hoop needs to come a bit forward of the bumper itself. Some reworking will be on the next round to see if I can make it look any better

It is a bit on the robust side (being 5mm wall box steel), not exactly pedestrian friendly, but not an issue for the MOT thankfully :laugh:

The recesses around the headlights were a right pain to cut into them and fill up, pleased with them though. The garage is actually an old bus garage. used to fit two of them in there somehow apparently. Plenty of room for a couple of Jimnys and a van in these pics (the owner of a garage has a nasty old van and a tidy old boxster and parks whichever isnt being used in there). I just rent 2/3rds of the space.

Sniper i like the sound of laser cut stuff, but probs out of the budget for now. Not sure about the rusty look. had enough of rust on this car already :blink: :woohoo:

I like the look Riccy
Just cut the chassis bumper mounts off and push the bar back :whistle:

LOOKING AWESOME RICCY,

Thanks gv42

There was much debate with Dave over that. I can of course make them look like they were never there, but on inspection i think they are some sort of front crumple zone, which probably should stay? Obvs, the big solid steel bumper sort of negates the point of them now :laugh:

Edit: Jack, can you post a pic of your KAP front end setup? i think it looks similar to this one in some way?
