I think it would be more pain than pleasure and would still look a bit funny ...

how bout a N14 pulsar front bar?, you can make them fit but to do it properly you would need to make a mould of the top of the stock u12 front bar then attacth the bottom half of the n14 front bar to the top of the u12 bar ;)

i just took my n14 front bar off. it sits to far back, the mud guard black plastic things in the wheel arch dont fit and theres a gap between the filler panel and the bumper. coudnt stand going back to a stock pintara bumper so i hacked off the bottom lip of the pulsar bumper and bolted it to the pintara bumper. its still really rough but i'm far from finished.  need to paint the bumper white for starters, fibre glass up that gap and stick some black mesh in the big hole. then maybe get some little fog lights for the little holes and some clear indicators

nice work man... ingenious idea for the lip...

yeah, i'm doing quite a bit of fibreglass fabrication to make the fit nice and flush... i had an experience with my old car doing a bumper conversion, and it wasn't flush, so it was annoying and looked kinda shitty..

not this time tho... learning from my mistake, and practicing my fibreglassing skills

doesnt quite flow in my own opinion. Id set it higher and just do some fiberglass work.
