Elty001's terrano project

No, but mine are antenna!

The do serve some other great purposes...

* Like Rick's, good for knowing your corners in tight spaces.
* Mine are 1 inch taller than my roof rack, so if the antenna don't go in, the truck wont!
* Not as good as Bush Cables, but they do keep foliage clear of you windscreen on tight lanes!

Still loving the look of this bumper Elty... Will you be moving on to the rear?

Liar, yours don't work

EDIT: Great pic mate.

Haha, they're pretty cool. But yeah, bumpers are called that for a reason :lol

Now yours do look the part and being antenna also look good there.
It's the ball on a stick I'm not keen on.
Kinda reminds me of this
Rear is a full steel but in need of a makeover.

Mk11 is looking better already. Wish that I had access to a sheet metal bender that can bend more then 1.5mm thickness.

Well i thought my aggressive looking bumper would need a new winch hook to complement it.

The front bumper is looking really solid there !

Just had a flick through the last few pages to get a feel for your Stealth/Robocop/Sherman
Tank build bumper.

This is a serious question here are you going to paint it a nice Metallic Nail Varnish Glitter Pink to make it look as though it weighs less than 3 cwt or in a none reflecting super Matt MoD finish ?

Have actually got an IRLR(infa red light reflective)nato green powder in stock at work:nenau
Going for a fine texture Matt black finish when I I finally get to that stage.
As for the weight i I don't think it will be much heavier than 40 kg at a guess.
I removed a serious chunck of weight by swapping to a synthetic winch rope over steel cable.

40kg ain't much is it, especially when compared to others that I've seen, bigbunnys rear bumper with the wheel carrier will have weighed much much more than that

 

[Barrbeast]

Yeh 40kg is nothing for a winch bumper :thumb2

Don't have a figure but the one on Bess weighs more than that.

His was made from box section with plate to finish the shape.
I'm just using folded plate for most of it.

 

[elty001]

Almost there i think.
