After few thrilling rides I realized I need to modify my stock bumper. Riding through forest made a lot damage on my front plastic and headlights. And also If you roll over you will brake whole front end. Unluckly my Sym is selled in Slovenia only S version ( sport). That means without front UTV bumper. So I went to garage and study how to modify it. I had some ideas from other atv brands. Then I took picture and edited in paintbrush :D. Bumper must be functional and must look like new ferrari 🙂 Then I bought 26mm steel tube. I needed about 2 meters. Thens started to cutting and welding. For headlights protection I needed to bend it. This did my friend with bending machine. I just draw line on a piece of paper. After that I cut it and fit it. Welding was done by my father . Who was professional welder for more than 10 years. Of course I can weld, but lets leave this work for pros 😀 You must weld this tubes on ATV, so that you can fit all lines, and check if it looks ok. After that I removed it and weld it. Then used sand paper to remove all dirt and rost from tubes. After that I spray it with black colour. And today I will fit it on my ATV. Finally!!
