Front Bars

I decided it was time to make some bars for the front to match my sliders. I had always liked the Prerunner style bars so i fabbed up something similar based on a few differernt ones i'd seen on www.prerunner.net I am quite happy with the results. They actually bolt into some pretapped holes in the front of the chassis and are tied into the bumper also. Think i'm gonna paint my bumpers, wheel arches and lower half of the Surf black to match.
Well i've attached a few pics so comments welcome, as long as they're nice.
Cheers

Thanks a million. Was wondering if everyone thought they were ˟˟˟˟. No replies. There are actually four pretapped holes either side of the chassis front cross piece. One M12x1.5 and one M10x1.25 on each side. I started by making two base plates to fix to these and then worked from there. They are also tied back to the bumper with some 1" flat. Very sturdy. I really like them. And they are just painted with underbody matt black like my sliders, so not worried about scratches.
Cheers
