[quote=""dirtymonkey29""]If you search underride on there a few come up. None that ive seen with dimensions though but maybe someone on there with one fitted can take some measurements for you if you ask nicely.[/quote]

There is a chap who's got a grey one with the full Aero kit and the bar (he posted pics up a few months back). Just need to find his thread...

Issue is the price. If shadrack can get tube diameters he can make one for less

If that was directed at myself, then no as that was too much money for what they were so never bought them.

If directed at Mark, then it will depend on if he can get the measurements to make them.
