MudRunnerTD's GQ From the Ground Up

[Bigrig]

I cut the holes under it, i left the centre bracing in place for the bonnet as i did not want to compromise the strength of the bonnet at all, mainly cause i was hanging my intercooler off the bonnet under that scoop. Most guys i have seen just cut it out. I dont think it gets in the way and the bonnet is factory tough.

Once i was clear on where the scoop would sit on the bonnet i then built up the centre dip down with fibre bog at the front and the back of the scoop. took a bit of stuffing around and then finished it with Sikaflex, sanded it down and kept the hard edge at the top so it would look factory the sprayed it. I am not sure if i have any close up shots of the scoop? i'll have a look and post if i find them for you Scotty.

Leave it with me mate. I did see your thread the other day about scoops but you were talking about forward or backwards and i was in a rush so did not chime in. I will see what i can find for ya mate.

Thanks champion - you're a star!! With the look of your job, I'll be driving down there and slipping you a few bills to sort it for me ... if I touch it with my two left hands I'll cock it up for sure!!! lmao

Been shopping today....

last time out i crunched my Himount winch and it is currently stripped out and in pieces waiting on parts. While its out i took the opportunity to take the front bar off my GQ and i sold it for a good price last weekend on ebay. Been really keen to swap over to a Tube bar with side hoops.

Bought one today and will be delivered tomorrow. I got one of the last FAT bars with side hoops before he closed his doors. It's been on a car but looks in very good nick



I'm Excited!!

Looks great mate!! Can't wait to see it on the rig. Very similar to the new one I'm getting.

[AB]

Nice work MR, shame about Cheezy though hey!

[Timbo]

Have missed this thread completely. Just spend half an hour going through it all.

MR, top work, top rig.. TOP THREAD!!!

[MudRunnerTD]

Thanks Timbo, cheers mate,

Yeah AB real shame, he really opened the way in terms of bar work, i give him credit for the design of the comp tube bar and know that his work is top shelf. Not sure what happened to him or where he ended up though? Think he just had enough and probably went to the mines or something.

Really pleased to pick up one of his bars though

Hey Scotty, where are you getting your bar from mate? I was looking at the Biders bar and the Millweld bar but this came up at the right price.
