Model changes for Land Rover are August, not January, so 08, 09/13 to 07, 08/14 is MY14.

pprass. Can you post up a few more pics when you get your vehicle back please? In particular square/level front on, square/level side on and also a close up under the headlights. Love the look of the curved posts, seems to match the curve of the grill and fit the whole discovery badge in between.
Thanks in advance if more pics are possible. Hopefully these are available soon. It may also get ARB of their ass!

Howdy I'm new here so i'll try to be good.

I've done much research on the bulbar front for the new 2015 discovery (4).

My Findings:
ARB are going to make one but will get around to it once they finish all the new utes, probably end of the year they said, but were not confitent.

OL: Will be making the new bullba sometime before then end of the year (I feel before AR. BUT their existing bullbar does fit and they can change up the head light washers (extra $100 cost) and change over the fog lights (extra $106). Only issue is that there is a slightly larger gap between the headlights and front grill.

I was not happy about having to go this option but I'm off on a 3 month trip and needed a bar and winch so had to go this option. As far as I could research this was the only option.

Howdy Dan.

Aurora no longer sell them in OZ anymore due to manufacturing for lightforce, Aurora started making them and arb took legal action, lightforce then bought the rights to the light because they had money to fight it and they added a few more led to them so they are brighter again

I was told by my OL dealer that the new OL bar that is fitted to my MY15 TDV6 will be in full production in 6 weeks time.

I'll see what I can do

Let me know if they are ok for what you need.

Really not much different to existing OL / ARB bars, except for the two uprights. They have angled them to better follow the profile of the sides of the grille, and "rounded" off the front of them (when viewed from the side).

Looks like they have also recessed the headlight washer jets into the bar (at least better than the ARB arrangement - haven't seen the previous OL arrangement at close range).

Like the colour of your Disco - have only seen one other in this colour so far, and that was in SA towing a caravan just before easter. It had a colour matched bar on it, which looked very nice.
