    My rear bar

    Finally started on my rear bar for my d2.Ive looked at a few options and sort of picked them to bits.Ive still got a fair bit to do and im looking at different ways of tying it back into the chassis.Ill be making up a rear wheel carrier so i can fit up my 33's later.
    Because ive cut out the hole for the rear indicators im able to bolt the bar on from the inside as the bolts go through the rear brackets and i can get my hand in there to do up the nuts.So the bar sits nice and close to the rear of the car.

    I got stuck into it today(AGAIN).I had to refit the rear bar as when i welded it previously it shrunk and pulled the ends in.But with a bit of trial and error i got it to fit.
    So here is a couple more pics with it on,ive still got to get some new clips for the plastic trim on each corner as these were broken from a previous trip.Ive still got the mudflaps to do and attach the rear panels,ill just make up a bracket or something for that i think.
