Off the top of my head, I think cheezy racing, snake racing or BBM would do it:

www.cheezyracing.com.au
www.snakeracing.com.au
www.bbmotorsports.com.au

but none of these are near you.

Nobody makes a good looking tube bar for either 80 series or GU's, the body lines etc of neither suit tube bars.

Basicly the same for rear bars on both. 80 series rear bars are just a pain in the arse because of the chassis and towbar setup.

I disagree, although I don't think I have seen a production tube bar that looks out of this world
If the above post did not offend you in any way please PM me so I can try harder!!

yeah right you've gotta finish harry's yet!!

i don't know what i'm doin for a front bar yet thats why i asked the question for ideas.

i like the pics of the bar on that cut down 80 but i'm goin highmount coz i found out that you can't run 24v in trophy class so scrapped that prototype lowmount idea. and i'm gonna run trophy class till i turbo the big girl.

i moved everything under my house the other day, i was hoping to get flooded in by today so i didn't have to get back to work but sadly am back out for another tour

seemed to be a lot of talk but no pics? Only pics I've found is on the Cheezy racing site. 2DExtreme have a good price and really fast service but would like some more examples to see what tube bars look like on the 80 series.
