Easy enough to make if you're into that, made all the panels for mine, that was the first time i ever worked with metal and it came out alright thanks, i had thought about getting a sheet of metal and actualy trying to make one as ive got a gasless mig and all the cutting gear but not the knoledge on how to make it and for some time now ive been meaning to get a sheet of metal and mess about welding so thats always a thought. tricky bit i guess will be the bends no?

Yeah, you can get metal benders which you put in a vice which are suprisingly good for what they cost, i think you can get one for about 100 quid, might be worth looking at eBay, just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nutta121 Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 so if thats correct then there should be no reason why i cannot fit the mk5 rear chassis rails as hadrian have them on there website but no mk6's... my mates gonne have a word with ford when he gets bk to work but i recon ford will have discontinued them by now... the only diffrence from mk5 to mk6 was only the front end being a smiley front if im correct? not totaly sure tho.
