I've been working on my van for over 3 years now and still not finished so I think you got it done pretty quickly. | | | Re: Installing custom Bull Bar/ Brackets/ Tow Hooks | Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 1,051 old hand | old hand Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 1,051 | It's cool that you are going to the lengths necessary to make an accurate copy. I like the A-Team van but I hate to see lame copies. Keep up the good work.

Im trying to think of the cost because Its been a while doing this whole project:
Bull Bar/Winch Mount Fab- 550 Winch- 260 Hook- 100 (25 +75 for Chrome) Tow Rings: 100 Bumper Inserts- 85 Powdercoating- 225 Machining work- 110 Hardware- 95 Fairlead- 40 KC Slimlites- 220
Grand Total of $1785.00
Maybe next time it will be cheaper with my own shop and machining tools. Still have to hook up the lights, and polish it up a bit, but that and the rear bumper are all done now. | | | Re: Installing custom Bull Bar/ Brackets/ Tow Hooks | Joined: May 2010 Posts: 245 enthusiast | OP enthusiast Joined: May 2010 Posts: 245 | I also just ordered my custom license plates: Vanther... | | | Re: Installing custom Bull Bar/ Brackets/ Tow Hooks | Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 3,811 pooh-bah | pooh-bah Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 3,811 | BEAUTY!!!!!! | | | Re: Installing custom Bull Bar/ Brackets/ Tow Hooks | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 9,854 Likes: 8 Festerus Vannimus | Festerus Vannimus Joined: May 2007 Posts: 9,854 Likes: 8 | Dude !
