Same thing :lol:
Obviously you've never hit a wombat before. I'd rather hit a koala than a wombat if it came between the two on either lane.

I've seen trucks come off second best to wombats
When I was hunting on my uncle's farm we found a wombat and my uncle had to put 7 bullets in it from about 5m away to get it to die.. sturdy little bastards :lol:

A fleshy, bony speedbump.

My uncle told me to shoot it but I refused, it wasn't doing any harm to anything. He grabbed the rifle off me and shot it though :?

It's legal on a private property as far as I know. They cull roos because they f**k with the land and stuff.

Also, it was in a gully and was going to die anyway. Was all mangy and sick. Still, I didn't want to shoot it.

All depends on this carbon wing business. I want that here first in case it arrives damaged. It's a big if but that way I can paint/repair everything in one shot instead of doing it twice if things go badly. FTO luck right? :')

Anyhoo, I have a painter, just need quotes and that to see how many parts are worth respraying at once. At this rate,it's a couple of months away..

Plates will be first I think but I'm wondering, has anyone used square plates for the rear? I was looking at it before but there's this weird gap at the top that might look dodgy.

Yea I have square rears for my plates. I had them on my other bar, they fit nicely but yea you do have that gap at the top, but you'll get that on all of the plates

hmm weird as,it'll be more pronounced with the square ones being narrower too. Might borrow one and test it out first.

Don't you have to go full custom with the yearly fee for square plates though? Maybe I missed one of the options..

ed: ah, you can get the premium ones...

Annual fee is for full custom ("XXX XXX", "XXX" etc).
Once-off fee is for something like "X-55555", "XX-5555", "XXXXX-5". Has to have numbers on the end and six characters!
