Last week I bought a 4" beam and spindles, as my 2" was already on its lowest setting and didn't give the look I was after...

So, this weekend with the help of a good friend we mounted it to my bus:

Cheers guys :D So happy about it!
It's getting closer to how I always planned to have a bus :D

Peter, I do still have the beam and do plan to sell it :)

First proper camera pics... Just to give a better idea than on the iPhone.
