Have finally got round to saving enough pennies to get myself a decent looking winch bumper, have decided on a tubular winch bumper but nor sure if i should have straight bar or one with a-bars. Have attached a pic of my landy and below are the links to the bumpers i have seen, which ones do you guys think? Any pics of your bumpers would be appreciated also:

First four with a-bar:Defender Shadow Silver Tubular Close-fitting Winch Bumper with A-Bar & Swivel Rec'y Eyes

Rebel 4x4:Winches and Winch Bumpers for Land Rovers

OR finally:

Bullfrog 4x4:bullfrog4x4 - tubular winch bumpers

So which is it to be.........

cheers, ali

Would be my vote. Simple, uncluttered and unobtrusive.
 
My vote would be my design, but thats a few months away :D:D:D,

tubular with a bar with room for 2 x 5in spots ;) and a fook site less than £327.00
 
1st 4 make fantastic quality bumpers. friend of mine has one for his 8274. Really well made and well finished. forget the others, they look ****e.

There is always the option of an ARB :D which you have missed out :p

that does look nice Griff.

Ian - make it 7" spots - will do both then.;)
 
Hmm not so keen on the ole ARB's. I know what you mean about the ff bumpers, couple of mates have them and theyr top notch. However, the straight bumper from MM 4x4 looks the same to me and is £50 cheaper!! thats 50 pints in student land! haha
 
i was going to make something like this
