haha i was joking.... yeh pics would be good.
I find that somtimes things need a good whack to come off as being bolted on there for a long time can make it "stick". Either that or theres a whole set of bolts in places you wouldent think, like under the headlight assembly.

Any friendly panel beaters nearby to ask ?
If you cant drive it there maybe they could show you (on another car ) roughly where the missing bolts are...or where to hit it with the big hammer

getting the mounting hardware undone isnt an issue, believe me, i have access to just about anything i'd ever need to do the job....
the problem is a couple of the bolts holding the bar on are in places where i cant figure out how to get any tools on them without getting destructive
