Looks ok but the body spacers are home made and would need to be checked out..............there are loads lifted and some even look very nice too.

well the rocky road, overland and rhino central body lift kits use solid bar for the spacers.
only calmini use box and charge a fortune for the kit to boot.

It looks a bit

err

Botched tobh. Id expect solid ally. I dont even want to think of the results of that being in an accident would be. Almost certain they'd crush or at least deform enough for the bots to be damaged/snap. Least a solid spacer wont deform.
