Just like there are red neck Land Rover driving *******. Or redneck Commodore driving *******. Or redneck Toyota driving *******.

You have a very impressive chip on your shoulder showing there.

Anything is possible, but It's not me having a lend of anyone, here is the Ebay link..

Cos that'd go well on a farm wouldnt it? It's destroy the chassis on the car when it hits the first pothole on the way up the driveway! That said, it's a mean bull bar and that on the car looks pretty fully sik!

I think it's illegal to have any bull bar that is angled forward, i.e. the top bar has to be behind the "bumper" section.

Actually the term 5 poster simply means 5 vertical posts.
I used to have 5 poster on my xf ute, which was angled forward in the traditional B&S style, and it was roadworthy as ADR's are not retrospective of age of vehicle. I'm not sure if i'd get away with the same bar on a new Falcon.

I have a smart bar on my current falcon which is a bit more "friendly", i miss my xf though, & the bar was great for parking as you could clearly see the front corners.

Hmmm ..... it looks pretty fully sick to me!

What a ****

It takes all kinds I guess. But I often wonder what 'statement' these big truckie wannabe morons are trying to make
Would it be.'' I'm the biggest drunken idiot in me village with nothin between me ears and even less inside me jeans''?
Wagoo.
