I think I like it better without the A-bar. Its a very convenient place to mount lights but doesn't fit in with the look of the vehicle IMO - its very round while everything else is very boxy.
I dont know if a simple square or rectangular section will do the trick, almost a custom made section with angles to suite the main bar.
Well, has that made your decision easier Simon? 3 for and 3 against...:D
Don't listen to them, Simon, it looks good.

Just make sure you can still remove the grill easily.
Mick's shown exactly what I was trying to say. With a whole bunch of added "round" stuff it breaks up the square lines and the rounded 'A' bar suddenly makes sense. But it's the combination of the cammo paint, round lights, including the indicators, the round head of the shovel, rounded handles, even the protection bar that wraps around the side near the indicators isn't squared off.
Note that the sides don't have anything rounded so the wheel arch flares are squared off. The ADF has a fine eye. ;)
And here's me thinking it looked good.
Hmmmm.. Well, I'm going to fit the lights and tack the bottom rail in place then post another pic.... Mine will end up white eventually, with Satin black features like the bumper, wheel centers, tanks, hinges and poss twin front snorkels (but only if I can get it to look right!!) :D
So, here's a pic with the 4 lights resting in place, and both tube bars tacked in situ. I think I've made my decision, but lets see what you all think now!? :)
And another from a slightly different angle!
I'd remove the starting handle clips then.......
Sweeeeet!
Looks good Simon.
