    ‘Land Rover’ alloy bull bar

    Two questions

    1) does anyone know what thickness alloy is used on this bar? It’s fairly light, I’m wondering if it actually serves a purpose. I note the ECB ones are 6mm alloy

    2) has anyone removed it? Does the car go back to complete standard - any obvious signs it was previously installed, rubbing paint off on wheel arches etc?

    No it doesn’t go back to standard.
    Bits missing and bits trimmed.

    The alloy bars look pretty but I don't think they'd withstand a good hit from a roo or worse still a cow which is why I've stuck with a steel bar, mine is from OL. I've also kept the removed front bumper which I was going to sell, in case I decided to sell the D4 ....... all I'd need to do is buy new wheel arches.
    Actually I did advertise the bumper complete with all the bits but apparently it's better to just go and get one from a bar installer which ahs been chucked on the scrap heap.
    Whatever, I'd rather have a steel bar than alloy just in case.

    Thanks all.
    Decided to take the advice, play it safe and go the ARB summit bar instead

    cheers
