Godlykepower Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 If a monkey started eating my A bar, it would lose most of its teeth. Get a metal one, tougher than a brick out-house & you never have to worry about it again. Dont think yours would be repairable, without it looking a bit of a bodge job.

BogMonster Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Expanding foam mixed half and half with arsenic and laxatives then go back and let them have another go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco_al Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 its not that funny went to longleat safari park and the monkey started eating my a bar like it was a big mac must be the lack of Capri rear spoilers these days, as they used to go down a treat with the monkeys at West Midlands Safari Park.

ThreeSheds Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Sorry but I can't imagine any repair to those plastic A bars which would look ok, but if (for instance) you DO try something like: Expanding foam mixed half and half with arsenic and laxatives then go back and let them have another go. then you should take care not to ingest any since powerful laxatives can have a very nasty effect on your arsenic...

Mo Murphy Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Dan, Leave it until it's due to go back and then fill it and cover with black boot polish Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzie1989 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 As far as I'm aware you can still buy them, bought one from a local Land Rover dealer a few weeks ago... and yes it does cost an arm and a leg. Wanted to go to Longleat soon too but you've got me thinking now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GL88 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 These are made by a company who also knock them out through eBay periodically. You could either contact them directly through their website http://www.endura-fps.com/index.php to ask about repairs or watch out for eBay seller "conceptmouldings" because they're bound to sell one soon - usually starts around £190 with a buy-it-now at £250. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel TD5 Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 thanks gl88 that cheap dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzie1989 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 J.V. Like Landrover in Brecon were selling them off cheap a few weeks ago, genuine ones they just had a lot of them. Might be worth ringing them as they send stuff out over eBay/Mail Order... Number is 01497 842100 and ask to speak to Andy or Annabelle.
