Anyone that's out Christmas Shopping around Garden City, whom has a 4x4, will be making exactly the same "pop up car park"..

This time of year is bat-sh!t crazy when it comes to car parks... Luckily we have our "make your own" type car....
 
It's not really what I did but what a brick layers truck did.
The truck rolled back about 30 feet and with the speed it picked up pushed the Nav back about 1 meter.
It happened right in front of me and there was nothing I could do.

Had a look but all that had happened was the bar had moved on it's chassis mounts.
A quick adjustment on site and a final tune at home and all is good.
Only signs of any collision are a couple of scuff marks on the overiders.

One very strong bar the Ironman.

Added some soap to water then applied using a sponge and bug pad using circular motions. Changed the Nav from brown and grey to white! Haven't done it for ages! Don't know if it has added any power or not.
 
Went to the beach and scored some free bush pin stripes hahaha

Yesterday I put my aerodynamic foam cover thingos on my roofracks, it's reduced the wind thumping a little bit but seeing as I've got the awning I still get wind noise. They cover the bracket and screws to the awning which is good :)

Finally hooked up my hid conversion on my hella rallye 4000,s. Only 35w kit, but absolute mint. Coupled with my 150w lightbar, it's brilliant. I have plus 100 globes in the headlights and they still look like yellow dull torches compared to the driving lights
 
I removed my rusty old tray for a refurbishment, The tray was an ex tipper tray so it weighs a heap plus having dirt or the like in it for long periods of time has given it a nice big rust patch. So far I have cut out all the old tipper brackets they were at least 50ks and cut most of the way around the tray still got all the underneath and the back panel to cut .

After upgrading to a canopy my fridge couldn't be opened unless it was in the ute, so I changed the sliders out for ones what extend further and have locks :) no more watching the mrs go flying backwards when I parked on a hill :)
 
Mike that sounds like it was worth filming .... sounds like a Road Runner v's Wile E. Coyote moment.
