    Ace Spot on.

    I'm not going to fix the rear quarters.
    I'll leave them dinged as they are now safe....

    I'm about to shoot my self in the foot when i say this.....
    My front guards have no dints YET.....

    now they will get some... My cat will bloody do it tommorow....

    i'm tempted to build a BIG Roll cage on the out side....lol...

    But i will build brash bars from front to rear, kinda ugly, but will save the body....

    Theory is to have them just inline with the flares so the flares can scrape, but the bars to push into the body..... mmmm bet they end up hitting the body....

    Worth a go as pipe is cheap...

    What can I say, if you are a cat person you have to expect things to happen!

    Why not, what have you go to loose, as you say pipe is cheap and if you have the gear to make something up it might just save you some panel damage. Matt

    After the first couple of dings.... It doesn't appear to get any worse. :wink:

    IMO, The Defender looks 8) with the odd bit of pannel damage. On the Disco or RaRo, pannel damage just makes them look tatty.

    If you want a cage for the 110, go internal. The external cages make them look completely wrong!

    I disagree, panel damage does not leave you stranded, breakages do.

    It has been stated many times in the past, series landrovers and defenders are the only 4wd's on the planet that look better with dents :wink: [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
