Hey guys, Just wondering if anyone has used a Chinese made front bar reo for their VR/VS. I have just done a front end rebuild and used a Chinese made reo and my front bar doesn't seem to line up as I would like it to, too close to the light on passengers side and too far away on drivers side. As mush adjustment as I try I cannot get it sitting right. I have heard their gaurds are that good so im wondering if the same applies for the reo. Are these available from Holden and how much does anyone know?
Do you have any pictures of these? I am still unsure of what you are talking about. I have a replica fascia on me ute and it seems ok even though its not genuine.
I have attached a link . It is the steel support behind the bumper in which it screws to. Have a look here: Holden VR VS NEW front bar reo BARGAIN - eBay, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 27-May-08 19:08:07 AEST)
ive had a aftermarket bonnet. never again. i wouldve just bought one from the wreckers. but, ive also got a couple aftermarket plastic bumpers, and they seem to fit alright. i spose it really depends on who it comes from. some places seem good,others crap
I think running it over with a Mack Titan would achieve the results I want. I am self convinced they are rubbish. I think they are just out of square to be quite honest...
Why did you buy a Chinese one anyway? Im pretty sure genuine ones are fair cheap (as in the same price basically).
I was at my local wreckers picking up a couple of bits and pieces and he sold them, it was either but that one or drive about 30k's to pick up a genuine one. Took the risk. Might be getting a genuine one tomorrow and see if it better-of course it should.
I agree with hakhawk, and 1991_vn2nv. Dont touch it with a ten foot pole... Been there done that and of course........ ****ED OFF.
CONVINCED - I'll get a genuine one. I try to buy genuine for all my parts. Should have done the same....Cheers.
this is a good test to see if anything you are going to buy is any good ( doesn't work all the time but 90% it does ) Chinese workers: 5c a hour. Australian workers: $20.00 a hour. why would someone who getting 5c a hour care if its perfect? THEY WONT!!
