Few hours off today, so disappeared into the man-cave...



Started fixing the KAP front bumper valance on... stainless nuts and bolts...



And then made a piece below to compliment it, using the 'bumper' off the abandoned buggy project...

Almost there! ;)

looking good Dave
have you though about mounting spot lights
either side of number plate
cut holes and mount flush
personally i think it would really finish off the front nice ;)

Just sold the snorkel I had sat around but never fitted to the old red New Grand Vitara... so, it would be rude not to re-invest it in the red Jimny?...

A JimnyBits rear recovery point set and 4 D-Shackles on the way...

And from the BigJimny store, 4 rod ends and lock nuts... the previous owner told me it had a little wobble and included a kingpin bearings and oil seals set in the glove box, to which I also bought the other side a while ago, and thought while I'm under there with it stripped I might as well replace the rod ends on the steering bars* and I'm also replacing the panhards with KAP ones and new B4V poly bushes, so that should all eradicate any wobble there was... :o)

*Hmm, tempted to fit Redacted steering bars at the same time?! :laugh:
