Your a braver (or wealthier :laugh:) guy than me doing that to a brand new Jimny. I'd love to buy a much newer jimny at some point and transfer all my bits across from my current Jimny when it gives up the ghost... I wish the Japanese would rust proof their cars better .

Adamski - I don't think you can do this in the UK anymore anyway. I think that there was a change law in 2007 that means you have to retain the original manufacturers crash protection at the front of the vehicle or use an approved replacement. This makes it very difficult to fit anything to the front of a post-2007 car without a lot of expense.

I had no idea about that. The other thing, of course, is how sick you are in a 'brand spanker' the first time you take it out for a spot of action and ding it.

Yes Martin you are correct.
If Brindog is in the UK he will have a shock when he takes it for the first MOT, it will fail
