Decided not to get a colour matched bar, or even a chrome one which would look good as well. Just too much maintenance to keep it all clean and scratch free - after all we will be taking it bush and off road (eventually after the novelty wears off :p )

Perfect, thankyou pprass! It is amazing how much a simple curve here and there can enhance the look. I really like it. IMO a black bar suits the rich red colour. Nice gaps and clearance for vibration and movement all round. A little trim (black of course) on the flares will set it off nicely.
Now to wait and see if they accept cameras as well.

Chrome you say. Now that would look nice on a nara bronze I reckon.:)

I'm getting a bar the same as Landyandy's put on next week. I intend to retrofit a wench, I mean winch.. mmm maybe both?. Now.. I don't want anyone to tell me I'll have to remove the bar to fit it....please....

No you won't.

I have the ARB winch bar on mine - it is very similar to LandyAndy's bar. I was told by ARB that the bar would have to come off if I later want to install a winch. However, I've been under the bar and had the bottom plates off more than once, and I really don't see why you would have to remove the bar to install a winch. I've previously installed a winch into another vehicle with very similar bar without having to remove or even loosen it - so unless there's something that I'm missing with these vehicles, I don't know what they're on about.

Edit : Tombie beat me to the draw.

It might be that it is just easier and quicker to access the area where the winch is bolted on and wired up if the bar is removed. I just had the winch on my 2004 Patrol removed (intended to put it on the Discovery - but it wasn't in good enough condition) and the bar was removed for that operation.

Thanks all... so winch shouldn't be a problem.. just have to limit size of wench.

Hi pprass
bar looks great, you were so lucky to get one. QLD dealers have not been able to source one for me since August 2014? :confused:
What size & brand winch can be mounted?
