Bar will be powder coated Antique Sliver Hammertone which really is close to black with a hint of silver colour. My XH is Khakai Green 2 shades off Black really but who's counting. Bullbars are built in Brisbane and will be priced close to $2000 depends on finish you want Painted / Powercoated / Polished ,,,,, Mine will have 2x 100mm sealed beam spot lights mounted in the face .Also available will be bush bars and side steps or rock sliders ....dam the choices are good. Should know final price Monday or Tuesday will pass on information as soon as I can ..

Nope. Those w**kers were just stuffing us about. It's a small firm on the south side of Brissy. They are boutique BB makers. The proprietor used to work for ECB though. In their workshop, they have Coaster buses, etc. Basically, make bullbars to order.
As Michael said, they just want to make sure all's well with this one before spruiking their wares and getting anyone too excited (however, I'm certainly excited!).
Note that the bottom portion of the front fenders has to be cut away to fit the wraparound bar, as it is a replacement bumper.
Still, there're adding a HF mount on one side for me, and a mount for my sand flag on the drivers side. I've already got the mobile phone and UHF aerials mounted off the guard.

Will they supply kit and install instructions only or do I have to drive to Brissy to get it fitted?
