    So have decided I will have to go the OL route, as ARB have no ETA yet.

    Question now is do I go the standard matte black or get the OL bar colour matched to my Corris Grey 2016 D4? The installer is very much trying to convince me that I will be happier staying black. Every other vehicle I have owned has had colour matched bar.

    I suppose it's a matter of personal preference, but in my opinion, on a D4 - a black bull bar suits a black or a white vehicle. On any other coloured D4, I would opt for a colour coded bar.

    We're currently having the same discussion at home at the moment re the young bloke's VW Amarok - it is a very similar colour to the LR Corris Grey. He is looking at fitting an AFN bull bar to his vehicle (much better fit around guards / wheel arches etc than ARB or OL). Tossing up between black powder coat or colour matched for this one - I reckon colour matched will be the way to go - but he has already had his side tube steps and cargo area bar work (which is chrome / stainless finish as standard) powder coated black - so he's thinking the bull bar should also be black.

    I've seen plenty of Corris Grey D4's though with colour coded bars (both OL and AR and I think that this looks better than a black bar.
    Cheers .........

    It's a ripple finish. Doesn't show the dirt. I went with the ripple finish as I've had problems with reflection from previous bars and this isn't a problem with this finish. Here's a close up.



    Personal taste of course but I like it.

    I like it too! But then I've got exactly the same one.

    Can anyone post some pics of their Corris Grey D4 with a black OL bar and anyone else with a matched Corris Grey bar please? So undecided.

    D4 Landrover Bull Bar - latest news

    Colour match is great if you're unlikely to scratch it...
    Scratching it will result in obvious gouges in the colour.
    This became very obvious in the colour coded bar on my D2...

    Black powder coat can be touched up with Satin black spray paint.

    Just something to consider.

    Went to the Camping & Caravanning Show yesterday, had a chat with a very helpful fella from ARB who said the Discovery 4 bull bar is now ready. He said all stores have received confirmation that it is released & available, although it will not be officially available for public order for about 2 weeks...
    His words.

    They were going to update the current bar but decided to go Summit.

    Good choice I think. He advised no pics until they are officially released.

    Thought I better report to the community!
