Erm, ye i want it road legal so i can green lane it. Havent really thought that far ahead, ill just overcome what i have to when i have to.

Its funny because i wasnt really going for flex just comfort and offroad capability, then one thing led to another and here we are. It rides nice over the cobbles in the yard :armsup:

That looks fantastic! I like how you've kept the bumpers true to the original size but loads stronger.
