Damn, that's hot! This version looks really sweet - wheel centered and hugging the hatch.

Two things I'm noticing; as with any rear-mounted spare, if you get rear-ended, the tire goes into the hatch no? That is, since the tire sticks out more than the bumper itself... Or is the tire up hire than most cars? Secondly, where the diamond plate is on top now, it seems to fix the gap that was present in the first version, correct?

I'm wondering if a flat surface with a rubber/plastic surface would be more practical for wear purposes than the diamond plating? Something kind of like the current bumper or stock side rails. Then again, how much use is it gonna get...

All in all, a definate improvement - looks really awesome... Damn! Combined with an ARB, you're ready for anything. The Spencer Low Racing fiberglass fender pieces might be the icing on the cake, if it works with the ARB and KMA!

How much are they going to run?
