hey, well we got our new car a few weeks back now..
and heres some pics...
there is no front or rear bars yet as ARB dont get them in until Jan.. and theres still alot more stuff to go on....
Straight out of the shop...
And with the 7 inch llift and some of the mods

very very nice!
cant wait to see it with the bars on, i must say that the patrols look very geeky with their standard bumperbars
but that is overshadowed by the 7 inch lift

yeh, and the HUGE lights...
we didn't get the nissan aftermarket front bar as it looks weak
althogu the back of the car doesnt look too bad with the stock plastic bar..but the front is Grimace

XFACTOR... could you take a couple of pics as to how the rear spottie is installed on the spare wheel? Been chasing idea on how to mount it on a GQ.
Thanks.

Just welded some box section onto the wheel carrier on mine.
or look at Kaymar ones at $140, they have 2 tabs that mount on the wheel carrier bolt holes..
7in lift? Why?

So that it doesnt get grass stains underneath it
the 7 inch is at about 5...so its good..and you get the extra wheel travel...and you have more clearence to get through hard tracks...

oh ok are your panhards wizard?
not sure at the moment who's actually making them for series 3 GU's but yours was a series 1 i believe.
yeah it should look better with an ARB bar up front or kaymar in the rear are u going to get them colour coded at all?

I think the TI's were delayed because of GPS problems..
