    D2 ARB steel winch bar - gap between bar and panels.

    Evening all.
    Just wondering what sort of gap those of you with the ARB steel winch bars have between your bars and the body panels?
    I'll put some pics up tomorrow, But my gaps would be at least 2cm, but everything lines up
    Seems to be a bit much to my way of thinking.
    Does everyone have this gap? Or is there something I'm missing?
    Alternatively, could I use a strip of rubber or something as a filler piece?
    Any pics would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    Perhaps I should clarify, my OP was pretty poorly worded.
    I mean around the base of the bar, the gap between it and the section under the grille and headlights

    Maybe it just looks a bit skeletal because the winch cradle is empty...
    Good excuse for me to buy one then!

    mine would be about 10-20mm along the front, the ends near the wheel arch are a little closer from a few hits.
