hey everyone

i am thinking of buying khunjeng's Bozz front bar and was just wondering if anyone here can recommend a good place in melbourne to get it painted and fitted and also an estimate on the cost

cheeers

any good panel shop would be able to fit it for u. would cost around 300$ . chris's front bar is from dmd so the fit should be pretty good

hehehz

awesome looking frontbar that one.

is your car lowered by any chance...? if not awesome (in respect to this front bar), if so, be prepared to find some back routes

and i second what shue said, approx $300 to get it paint and fitted.

chris - your not fitting it anymore?

yeah I have had it sitting in there for ages...I also have the DC side skirts.

since my other half will be driving the FTO more than me...the lower bar is an issue for her cos she will rip it off...if was me I would not be worried cos I would b careful...

plus...she told me she wants the Facelift bar now...so she said sell it...but I will still put on the sideskirts...

lol I spoke to DMD the other day and they were angry cos I hadn't send them some photos...I told them...heheh I hadn't fitted it yet..But DM have fitted a number of FTO bars...so this one will fit properly..

lol

yeah the car is lowered on apexi spring which is the main reason why i snapped the veilside bar i have now

Might chuck back the stock springs once i get the bar painted and fitted

no you can't do that, you find new and inventive ways of dealing with bumps and driveways, even if it does piss off other people on the road.
keep it low

cheers dude

it is a bit low but I've learnt to live with it now but I do grit my teeth everytime I catch it on something

I have the bozz and don't really scrape much if at all it just takes technique. I'm thinking of getting a sticker for the back that says "IT'S LOW AT THE FRONT". The amount of people that almost hit me when I go into carparks etc scares me a bit.

wah... looks awesome. cant wait till i get it

as for scraping the bottom... its just so hard not to sometimes.. especially these steep gutters
ive tried going over them slowly one wheel at a time but no go

any techniques or suggestions would be great! haha

i lowered my car 2.5 inches and yeh i have trouble with the STOCK front bar..
i really love the style of the Bozz kit.. but i dont think i would be able to drive
the car over anything.. i hit my fornt bar on my driveway if im not careful..

PurpleRonnie I looove your car!

Wish I got the Bozz front bar now instead of the model in khunjeng avatar.
To much stuffing around was had to get it to fit.

I so badly want a Bozz front bar, but my house is surrounded by speed bumps, so really don't think it is an option...

Was contemplating this one though. Anyone know how the fit is on these ones? Much nicer than the rounded VS bar, this one is more edgy...and space for the intercooler

Also, doesn't "look" as low as the Bozz one...

they are roughly the same...but yeah BOZZ is nice. if u had to stuff around your bar must have been a bit sh*t...should be easy to fit.
