Hi all,

a friend of mine has just purchased an '02 GV 5-door 2.5 V6.  It is
immaculate and runs like a bought one but now there are thoughts of throwing
some new fun bits on it.

Speaking with North Shore 4WDs (Artarmon, Sydney) I was told that there are
basically no 3rd party items for this vehicle due to their small numbers.
Regarding the bar, they said that the only option would be an original nudge
bar.  This car will be used in the bush as it was intended and so will
require better than that.

What are the polypropylene (or 'plastic') variants like in real life?  I can
only imagine they are pretty unattractive but good for keeping weight down
and for their ability to bend on impact and then bend back.

Any ideas?  Other items could eventually include lower gearing for low range
and possibly a 1" lift (depending on the insurer).  Foggies and light
protectors, window deflectors etc. are also on the list, but surely these
can be purchased from general auto outlets, yes?

I have done some googling but haven't found much yet.  Membership to the
Suzi 4wd club will certainly help with such matters.

This is a whole new domain and so your advice will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Dave E (Sydney)
