No i havnt. The front and rear guards have both been rolled by the guy who owned it b4 me and it does not rub one bit. only problem with rubbing was the back left tyre rubbing on the guard because had no adjustable panhard rod. and also the wagon i brought had the FE2 suspension in it from factory so it already looked low at the back from when i first got it. cheers mark

ok, didnt read entire thread, too tired from work, anyway, i got myself a vn wagon the other week, its got the alloy roof strips on it, now this thing has been sitting in the guys yard for over 6 months doing nothing, theres rust on the roof, all surface, but nothing really arund the strips and no signs of water on roof lining, all good, there sealed when put on, so unless removed and not resealed, they should fine.

Patrio i never really looked at that one... not interested in 5L.

hakhawk... yeah that's what i figured re roof strips... if they look a little bad can always unscrew them a touch and bog it with some silicon.. tighten back up and good as new.

yep, im gonna remove mine, polish em up real nice and put em back on once cars been painted

i was hoping there was no bumps under them, so roof was smooth, but alas, its not.

still should look hot with polished roof bars and polished door trims

hell yeah ;)

I'm loving this wagon idea.. plus so much potential for boot installs (or whatever you call it in a wagon :p). All in the future.... coupla boxes with a 10-12" and 6x9 each ;)...6" 3ways in the front.
