I have yet to meet a Bushie/Dakar owner who can't say the car "brings a smile to their dial" every time they drive it.

The rubber flares let it down a little.

Have you considered a set of the Dakar fibreglass flares. Very neat and integrate well.

If I go for bigger wheels I'll use them on my Dakar.

Yep, they are zippered, I will see if I can find out the cost.

The bushie wheel arches are moulded a little different to the dakar, but the Dakar flares may still fit (I don't know for sure).

WTF :shock:

Have never had thornbirds. I had 37" MTR when I had 100s diffs, but got rid of them when I changed diffs as I need bigger dia wheels.
