Bull bar private manufacture?

I am looking at a Bar for my NS SWB.
Has anyone had a BB made by local fabricator?
There is a local guy who makes some very good stuff with stainless steel and I wondered whether it is an option to get him to make one.
I assume the costs of the SS will be an issue if a one off, compared to someone like AWB.

I don't think you would be able to get one made by a local fabricator. (well you could but it would not be legal). The bar has to be tested and airbag compatible.
On a non airbag 4WD you dont have a problem, but the main manufaturers (ARB, TJM etc) put a lot of time and money into testing of the bars.
