    On this instance that won’t work so well.

    The cut allows the original bar to maintain profile and retain the washers.

    A couple of alloy brackets and jobs done.

    What a stupid idea to have to cut the guts out of the original bar to fit it

    Even a “commercial” bull bar requires parts cut (flares)

    All require cutting the bar work.

    And what are you planning for your lump of plastic hiding under the house? Help with Bull Bar Install it either will go to the future owner or more likely get thrown out if you sell the vehicle Help with Bull Bar Install

    Mine went in the bin about 5 min after it was removed. After all, it’s never going back on.

    Wasn’t sure about this bar until today. I happened to see one in the flesh, looks amazing on the white but sprayed black

    pic isn’t great as I had my hands full but almost regret my ARB one for looks now. Can get a closer pic tomorrow if you need one

    You’ll only regret the look until you smash a Roo at speed.
    At that point in time the Alloy LR one will offer far less protection and will result in damage. The ARB unit takes a significant hit before any damage is sustained; I know this.
