I really like- but it sits out a fraction too much - if I had a criticism.... :oops:

I'm sure it could be made more compact?

4wd26, it can be made without a winch recess which will be closer to the front grill.
But I chosed to have a winch once all the bar work is completed. Also, will buy Lightforce 170 as the 240 is much too big, will install them on the roof rack.

tassie_ml, NO problem seeing through the windscreen, at one time I had the front with 100% mirror reflector shades, got too dark at night in the end, so had them replaced with 50% shades!! There's other vehicles here with only 150mm wide slot.. :D :D :D
Here in Philippines, there's No retrictions or hard regulations to follow, as long as it's running...the vehicle was bought new in Sept '08 and now with ONLY 11 months of warranty left and the 2" lift installed earlier in the year it's still under warranty cover.

Do you have a website (or gallery) where we can check out other custom work you have created.

I like the curves in that front bar- if you are a business, you might find a market here for some of your stuff.

oh and welcome.....

Lytspid aka (Jason Togonon) has eyes for details, he has designed the bar after I advised him of what I wanted!! It didn't take him long to have my ideal front bar. The man is well experienced in any offroad mods, you care to have done your vehicle. I highly recommend his work & his personality. If any you guys would like any works done, just PM me and I will gladly give you some info!!

Thanks for all your compliments guys, at present the wide flares have been installed, the rock sliders/steps and side protection bars on the front have also been installed today, just need to paint them with same colour as the front bar. When that's completed, the rear side protection bars are still under fabrication as well at the rear bumper/wheel carrier( pics will follow soon )
From there the mods/want list is getting shorter but will I ever stop :D :D :D ??

Unfortunately, I am heading back to work in Oz today, arriving in Perth tomorrow.
So, the project rear side bars and rear bumper/wheel carrier will continue while I am away.
Once fabricated, they will be painted same as the front Xroc.

Just to let you guys know, the touch up paint work/front bar/rock sliders and side bars, once painted is very cheaper!! You will fall over back wards, PM me if you are keen to know!!
