CSET 564 Report post Posted August 28, 2012 I like it - a lot of the jappa guys have gone the branded painted towhook route, and even added roofracks. If you're after that hardparker theme, have a look for a wind deflector (Thule make them). Here's some inspiration: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On a side note, and nothing to probably worry about, but I got pulled over by a horrible Police officer last year and he actually fined me for having the tow hook sticking out the front, its apparently illegal and a hazard.. it certainly hurts when walked into.

Here's some inspiration: Yeah would be pretty keen on a wind deflector and have been keeping an eye out, no rush though! Also when you say jappa guys do you mean Japanese e30 owners or Japanese car owners? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

max 27 Report post Posted August 29, 2012 I like it, looks cool! I made my own fairing, put a build thread up on here somewhere - pretty simple with some perspex and some ghetto custom brackets from bunnings. Love the red Thule foam rack cover things!
