A mock up, for a pic for you all.
What do you all think....should I
Delete the spare wheel door and use a sedan bumper....or
Use bumperettes and keep the spare wheel door....????

dunno, I think the overiders might be a little too much, looking at Hemi's van it's a much cleaner look without them.

By bumperettes, I meant ute/van type bumpers......not overiders.
Seeing
this van though, with the cut sedan bumper, is the way it would have to be done.
An fe/ek van rear bumperette wont fit the van now with the fb/ek tail lights.
So its a full width sedan bumper....or cut down sedan bumper with a working spare wheel door????
Cheers

Full bumper looks cool, move the over riders over inline with the hinges to hide em. If it dont interfear with the tailgate operation.

sunny rob's idea on the over riders is really cool. it's one of those little details that really finish off such a cool car.

you never see bumperettes with EK tail lights so if it looks cool run with it.

be cool if you could do a bumper but have it flip down to allow access to the spare wheel door? Like maybe a couple of hinges welded onto an assembly that holds the bumper and is held in place with split pins or something that are hidden behind it? Then you pull the split pins and the bumper folds down and you can access your spare wheel door. Then you'd have the best of both worlds and a unique set up? Anyone get what I mean?

Gunna look good regardless
I like the full bar with overriders
and the hinge idea would work a treat
look good and hide the spare wheel and easy access
