My front bumper is a pre-facelift and I destroyed it at sibbertoft Sunday, it was ok all day until I ventured off into the wooded area into some bomb holes I've now got to decide what bumper to fit etc.

It was the first time I've taken it off-road and was amazed how good it was standard, except for the 18" BFG at. I do plan on taking it off road again or down some green lanes in the future so I don't feel spending £300-£400 on a second hand pre-facelift bumper is a wise choice although I do prefer the look of it over anything else. I have looked at fitting a facelift front bumper as they are similar price but what are they like off-road for approach angles etc as they are shorter than the pre-facelift? I then Also need to look at spending on face lift lights to match.

I've also considered a HD front bumper or winch bumper as I do have a superwinch LP1000 in the garage that was bought for my RRC years ago and never fitted. I'm just not that into the off-road look on the D2 as I'm trying to keep it standard looking. I'm trying not to fall into that trap of fitting this and then another part and before I know it I've built a Tonka truck. I did that with my RRC and although it looked awesome it didn't drive awesome on road, my D2 is an everyday vehicle at present and a potential tow vehicle for a future business venture.

I've looked at the Shadow winch bumper and also the Torque performance Rock bumper with optional discreet winch tray for future fitting or their winch bumper. I think these are the best of the bunch when it comes to looks with HD bumpers.

What are people's views and opinions, also any pics you could add of options would be much appreciated :)
