Not me. Although I was met with hostility when questioning the design as being prone to getting branches etc jamming and causing more damage. Doesn't take a genious to see this will happen. Needs an enclosed design really.

Yep, I'd stick a plate on the bottom at very least
 
I could louvre the plates easy enough, but yeah, I don't see it as a necessary guard, however if someone asks me to price them one then I'll do it

Even an enclosed design will fill with mud, this in time will set like concrete!!
 
Top secret, we develop it in high-security facility placed 500 ft under ground level. :D :D

Ok, let's be serious :p

I think about a set of fender bars :

Those should add a little more rigid to front parts of the car - important thing when front will be overstretched by winch bumper and winch (Passenger compartment and rear end already done by roll cage), and suspension mount area. A
lso i would like ask Simon to develop strut brace for L-Series (for Td4 is available to buy). Those items should create another small cage in engine compartment area.

Winu you are the "top dog"
 
Problem with the brace and fender bars are the market, you're the only person I've spoken to who wants them lol

If I could copy the mounting positions and overall sizes of the guard John that would be great, thanks.

I like to be the only one :D .

Fender bars will be useful, just we need to tell people that they need them, and feel it when those will be fitted ;)
I have a spin ride in stock Range Rover, and Range rover fitted with some body stiff elements (total 6) - Giant difference.

Fender bars are also easy to do (i think), all FL1 have the same layout of front A-post, and plenty of space under wing.
Strut brace must be unique to L-series /1.8K because those have intake pipe/filter housing on brace way.

But financial stability is total overrated nowadays :D

You can always earn money, find other ways to find funds, but pleasure from creating things, is priceless. :D
