Will be adding a Nissan brush guard to the front soon, with lights......because of Brazilian laws I cannot change the form bumper because I have to have an inspection every year because she runs off of Natural Gass...and Regular gas...Does anyone know a way to mount a wench using the front buper and Nissan brush guard? and still have room for lights?

First, Nice looking R50!

 

Second, I have the factory Nissan brush guard and mounted my lights to it. Unfortunately, there is no way to mount a winch to it as it is made of aluminium.

 

Third, what do you mean that it runs off of both regular and natural gas?

They have a lot of cars here that fun off of GNV (type of natural gas). The do not come from the fatury this way you have to buy a kit and have a specialist install it...The Government give you a discount on your taxes ever year if you use. When I use it, my Pathy feels like it goes from a V6 to a V2.. :rofl: it takes all of the power away.....

devonianwalk - I have a question on your brush guard. Is it strong enough to protect the car for example in case if you hit another car on a parking lot? :) Or is it just a decoration? I am looking for something like this for my wife...

About ten years ago I rear ended a Toyota Celica (small car) and destroyed the guys trunk, bumper, and tail light with minimal damage to mine. The brush guard had to be strengthened out and my fog light had to be replaced but, it has some strength on th verticals beams. It is mostly just decoration though. I wouldn't spend a lot on a factory guard.

A brush guard is called a "brush" guard for a reason: it's meant to "protect the front of your vehicle from brush, limbs and debris," not from other vehicles.. Although at parking lot speeds, it might save your front bumper from minor dents and scratches.
