ok guys
i fitted the front bar last nyt and too my shock it fit pretty well. all that was needed for me to do was to drill 6 holes, normal mounting points for bar and it will need a small packer under each headlight to minimize the gap, and cooler hole deepened.
around the guards was perfect. it sat real good. no manipulation needed. indicators sat in the holes correctly and yeh was a good fit. cant forget to mention tho, i had to cut some of the ducting at the back for the cooler to squeese in, it is evident that the bar was designed to be mounted without the front mount and only the standard side mount. no biggy tho, angle grinderworked good.
oh yeh, with regards to d1 slots in the bar, i had to remove some of the reo to allow them to sit right but thats necessary even with the gtr style bar.
and if anyone gets these guys front bars and needs a hand with fittment, im more than happy to help out.
