Actually looks pretty good granddad and I say that as a person who is pretty much over the comp style tube bar look. You see all the Hilux wanna be's running them to "be different" but at the end of the day they are getting more common than a traditional bar. Yours isn't a bad combo of both. Tried to find a pic to show you but I saw one recently that was similar to yours but to dress it up over the basic tube concept he did similar to you on the top gave of the wings but filled the front face of the wings as well but with dimple died panel welded in flush at the front edge of the tube. I reckon that would have lifted yours to another level again. Also hides all that ugly sheet metal that is usually hidden behind a bumper and now exposed on those full comp style bars.
What's the composition of materials for your creation. I'm always curious to see what materials people use , it also clarifies the level of difficulty a bit more.
