Rope on bumper

To me this looks like a bit of a stylish design rather than anything else, but which do people prefer?

Does anyone on here have rope on their bumpers? and any other images would be great to see

Thanks

 

Join the AA, won't need a rope then

 

i think i heard about someone having one and a map in their boot :-

 

Boom....

I don't think it's a bad thing to have incase of Emergency. I would like to think i'd never need to use it but better safe than sorry.
:supsbrew:

 

How about some rusty chain and an anchor - you never know when you'll need an anchor with the recent bad weather...

 

The bus is going to be 40 in a few months, touch wood won't need it. But IMO it's best to be safe & keep one around just incase.

Obviously i'll try and make it look "cool" somehow!

 

This place is good 'cool' rope

made the kids an old fashioned swing from some of the bigger stuff

 

This is more useful.

 

nice one Oscar & BayBirmingham I guess you have had a little rain over the past few weeks then!

I get the feeling noone likes to be safe incase of emergency?!?! :

 

No, we're taking the Mick because you want it purely to look Jason Kewl but you're pretending it's a safety feature.

Get some of that cheap blue string builders use and we might believe you.

 

Is rope on a bumper really a cool addition to a Vw???

I could think of many more accessories i'd class as cool but I will take your word for it chaps!!


Get me the builders string!!

 

If its for emergencies you'll be better off with this.

But that doesn't look as cool :laugh2:

 

Be a bit awkward drilling all the holes in the deformation panel to wrap the rope round though

 

Cut the rope into little strips and glue them on. In an emergency just pull them off and tie together. Simples! )

 

Yay rope on the bumper great for a quick game of tug of war

 

I reckonise that bumper para i had one like that and sold it to someone with a bay but it was before i joined here!
