Hey guys,

Those of you that have them does anyone know the dimensions?? Or could someone measure one for me?
I'm looking for the width between the two bumper mounts, the height from the bumper mount to its highest point (middle lamp bracket) and the height from the bumper mount to its lowest point (left or right side spot bracket)?

I can't source one anywhere and would like to have a go at fabricating one! Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks in advance!

the bar alone; http://www.minispare...44&prod_id=2700

the bar and spots; http://www.minispare...44&prod_id=2616

Reasonable prices IMO specially for the bar and spots. ;) Hope this helps.

I got mine from Huddersfield a while ago, the approximate dimensions are:

Horizontal distance between bumper lip mounting bolts - 87cm
Vertical distance between bumper lip and the bracket for the top lamp - 25cm
Horizontal distance between the brackets for the left and right lamps - 57cm
Vertical distance from bottom light brackets to bumper lip - 15cm
Length of straight bar between the left-centre and centre-right curves (on same horizontal plane as the lower lamps) - 18cm on each side

All of the curves seemed to have a radius of about 10cm, and the bar mine is made out of is around 2.5 - 3cm in diameter.

Those measurements are only approximates, they're not 100% accurate, but should be a good starting point if you do decide to make one. They were all taken from the approximate centre lines of the bar and the bolts/brackets, not from internal/external faces.

I believe there is also another version where it curves to the front of the car, meaning, if you look straight down from above the car, the bar curves out. I think the one in the film is like that too.
