Trapezoid Side Bars

[The_Lad]

cheers ill take a look, still havent ordered anything and waiting for Bristol Campers to get back to me

i cant find any trapezoidal LWB bars in black so im thinking i might just bite the bullet and go with these

https://www.van-tech.co.uk/product/vw-t6-black-stainless-steel-side-bars-sportline-o-e-style/

these are the only ones i can find that actually state they will not rust and that the jacking points are not affected.

Anyone have any experience of these?

This design means the bars ends short and the brackets attach to the end of the bars. To me the brackets are too visible and spoil the install.

 

[The_Lad]

Mmmm i see what you mean, which bars do you have?

 

[KEDSKI]

has anyone seen aftermarket angled bars? Can you provide links please?

What's wrong with powder coating the VW stainless steel trapezoid bars to the colour you want?

 

[KEDSKI]

@Dilbert Price not colour.

Santa’s come early (well Pauly)! LED sidebars arrived today just need time to fit

Can you not get trapezoidal bars and powder coat them or do them how you want?

 

[Shredder]

@Keaney .... so yours are VW trapezoidal and dipped ??

I ordered at set of these yesterday after they dropped the price (same ones as Bristol campers) I can’t comment on the quality as they haven’t arrived but at £235 I’m willing to take the risk!

No mate carbon skinned... not sure how long a dipped finish would last.

 

[The_Lad]

Shame all the aftermarket ones seem to be SWB only @Pauly how much would a set of LWB trapezoidal bars be from the forum shop? As this looks like my only option and then powder coat.

Did you do that yourself or get someone else to do it? They look really good....
