Ke 55 Wrap Around Bars

[Calam05]

i got front and rear wrap around bars, i put the front on but it isnt sitting right. do the models that came with it have a different front apron or something? or different mounts to the standard ones so it sits back further? i got mine posted and he only sent the bumper, no mounts.

 

it sucks that it doesnt look right and i want to know why.

The wrap-arounds have a little bracket at the ends that attach to the side of the guard. Don't think cars that came with the shorter ones even have a hole for them either so you'll have to drill some.

my 55 came out with the wrap around bumpers and i got rid of them as soon as i tracked down ke30 shorter ones.

 

when i took off the wrap around ones i noticed there was a body coloured metal spacer trim that filled the gap between the body and the bumpers. bout 2 inches long. without them it looks a bit wierd, could that be it?

 

and yes there was also a bracket on the ends of each wrap around to make it sit solid

yeh that 2 inch thing is what I'm on about, theres a massive gap that sits behind it currently, but if i move the bumper in closer, the bumper hangs too far over the guards near the wheels. ill have to try and find that spacer thing. oh boy thats gonan be fun..........

i was going to mention that mine are just festering in my shed somewhere... but nevermind.

 

i actually relocated the front one to the bottom of the apron for a while, made for a damn aggressive looking front skirt haha
