Don't forgot the added cost of putting it through an IVA test for imported vehicles etc. the cost will soon add up, I doubt it would even pass first time without a few changes. probably cheaper to restore a rust bucket with all new panels from suzuki.

buying a second hand one over there might work out quite good value though?

Looks better now my dad has raised the bumper and bullbars to match the body lift.

I'm trying to convince him to paint the bullbars black though, what do you guys think?

If he won't agree to it. Paint it when he's not looking!

I'm a black bull bar kind of fella, any other colour :yuk: the only other one I liked was on a tatty 410, its bullbar was painted black and yellow 'wasps stripes' like on the back of a loco. It looked good with the 410s patina but I wouldn't choose it for my own

Paint it red, like the wheels.
