Smile Aftermarket Rear Bar

Hi Everyone,
I am looking for an aftermarket rear bumper bar for a Disco1.

I have seen a Disco1 modded in the US and it had a great looking rear bar. With the dollar so good at the moment would be interested on peoples experience on suppliers and any web sites.

Cheers
Ralf

That you could! I think that bar would be alright for someone who doesnt have the tools/time/skills though.

It's also a good design to base ideas off for a DIY build too!

Certainly could, it looks like it is made out of 75x100mm RHS with a couple of plate end caps and a pair of led tail lights- at most $100 of materials. But is is cheaper than a kaymay and ideal for someone who doesnt have the skills or tools to make one. Kaymars have provision for at least 1 x swing away wheel/ jerry holder and a tongue receiver .

It would be great if we could get that rear bar in Melbourne. Price is definetly better than K Mar one. But I will shop around to see if somebody can make me one locally.
