Default WK2 Bull bar thread

Dave, you're on a winner. My very conservative SWMBO admitted last night that it doesn't look bad. For her, that's a big call.
She's only ever said that once before on our wedding day
I've posted some info over on the Caravanersforum - WK2 Thread, but I can't push it too much further as I think I'm borderline breaching their vendor rules
Big market there too, so you may want to become a vendor there.

Might also be an idea to list your interstate partners that will supply and install?

Default WK2 Bull bar thread

Finally arrived home tonight and got to see the bar in real life. The design, shape and quality of finish looks fantastic.
Dave, well done and thankyou for supporting the WK2 owners. I don't think you'll have any problem selling these and would even suggest you've provided a bar that turns the WK2 into a much more serious off road unit. OK it will never be a JK or a TJ, but certainly a new option for the WJ/G/H owners looking to upgrade.
Just my thought, but the 2011 WK2 would be getting close to hitting the 2nd market as many start to come off leases. Given the fuel economy and 'bugs now all sorted out' it wouldn't surprise me to see these become a wanted unit.

Next step for me is to talk to Stu Murchison re the suspension/lift upgrade, and at this stage, looks like I might put a set of Maxxis MT764's on.

Looks good Dave.

just a couple of questions, (sorry if they have been asked and answered already)

1: Do you have the option of the bar without the top hoop?
2: Will this fit on the Trailhawk models? if yes, can the factory tow hooks be used/incorporated?

thanks.

chris
