Got damaged in my spin in the snow didn't stuff about getting a replacement one from a wrecker and then picked it up today from being painted. Get to destroy the old one at some point now, too, as the parts & panel shops both didn't want to try to repair/resell it, so they left it with me to dispose of it. Have to fiddle with the exhaust as it got slightly bent/moved to the left before I can fit the replacement bar... nothing a bit of heat and a hammer won't fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gets unclipped where to connects to the quarter panel on the drivers side when I go over bumps... standard B-series things... that's because the quarter panel is slightly dinged from the original carpark hit that caused the front-bar to get resprayed anyway.
