Default Door anti intrusion bars

Since we all like pics....

The old Evans kit has a C section anti intrusion bar in place. Something a bit stronger would make me feel safer.




Knocked up a 40 x 6 mm flat frame that welds to the extremities of the existing setup. Very easy job, adds some extra protection.
the blue foam we all recognise as crash pad foam from our camping trips helps hold the curve in the outer door skin. Makes for a pretty solid door you can slam the crap out of with the skin on, you can lean the knee right into it and it's all good. Pity the wanker who kicks the doors in oneday.



The yellow things are tile wedges, stuck on with double sided emblem tape. This allows for the outer skin to be lined up neater with the body. Hoping minimal filler is required externally.
