IFS new bumper bulbar.

Post by WESKUSKLONG »

I was tired of the old bumper bulbar and started a new project. Keep in mind that I am going to build monster fender flares that is why its 50 mm wider each side. :tease: :tease:

Thanks guys ,
Ek is bietjie gedruk vir tyd want ons gaan Nam toe vir n paar weke so vir nou het ek dit net Hamerrite gespray.
Die eind kleur sal Silvervein ge powerdercoat wees. Ek sal na Nam 4 Led spots in die bumper inbou sodra my beursie herstel ...lol
