I find this post really, really offensive.
How dare you!

I'll be huffing and puffing all afternoon.

Hahaha!!!!!

Hell no offend people - nothing happens if people are offended. It’s just an emotional state.

Play the ball, not the player and you can say what you like.

I wonder how they could have manufactured a brush bar in 1990 to 2002 standards (oh, and I have a copy of that standard).

I was reminded of this little gem of a document in a discussion on facebook last night.
Please note it's date. Also note it's use of the word "forward". Also note this document is mentioned on the "blue slip".

Why do people perceive certain risks as “non-critical”.

An example: I never want the potential to be sued and lose everything I’ve worked towards in my life. Or be saddled with debt going forward should something go awry.

Hence all my builds have been certified and plated where required.

Yes Tombie. Thanks for pressing the line of thought.

Well if I can do it anyone can...

And I rest easy knowing I’ll be financially ok should the worse happen.

It was all certified and plated officer...

Aint gonna help you if you load up over GVM, drive DUI or speed. And those are the main offenders, the last two most likely to cause accidents, kill or render you destitute.

Im not worried about people driving around with custom bullbars or bullbars in general. I dont think there are many people on this forum, if any, that are posting from prison or have dropped offline because of the modifications they made to their land rovers.

Agree with those comments.

And yes, those well over GVM etc are a much greater concern.

I think of more concern is ICED drivers in recent times; but that’s a different discussion I guess.

Have you seen the new ARB ad? With the blue Hilux...the ARB bullbar is wobbling so much it looks like it’s about to fall off!
