    Default front bar changeover

    i was wondering if there is a place in melbourne that will swap your bar for a new one or something like that, my bar has real bad paint and a scuff on the lip, i dont really wanna fork out multi hundreds for a new one or a respray due to the scuff in the lip.

    are there any other options out there without scavenging round the wreckers?

    Wreckers have a few good condition front bars, just take it to a panel beater and it shouldn't be anymore then $250 for a front bar respray + match.

    Also holmart sell brand new front bars for $220, or its probably worth getting a different style of front bar such as a monaro front if yours is on the way out. Probably will end up costing the same as getting the stock one replaced.
