Nice ride - I have to say the 150 shape is growing on me.

Now that's more like it. Love the look of the ARB bar - I'll have to keep an eye out for you Silvo, not too many 150's with ARB bar running around the Park.

Shall do mate. Might just be a flash of the lights or a horn blast if going through those f#$%*_g bends everywhere.

Lightforce XGTs 240 installed on the ARB bar. Takes up a lot of space.

Awsome build so far. Really like what you have done to yours. Am waiting on some $$ to get a bar fitted and you have done exactly what i want on mine only we have white one. This maybe a stupid question but has there been any problems with fitting those lights in the bar considering the intercooler is at the front? Wouldn't this reduce the air flow?

The bar looks great. Mine is being painted as we speak and is getting fitted Tuesday next week, complete with a Warn 9k Winch, cant wait, especially after I pierced my front bar at Newnes on the weekend

i did the same thing, scratched the lower part of the bumper and put a crease in it. i had to assure my wife, that the part scratch would be cut off when the bullbar was put on :mrgreen:

A stupid question, but does ARB use any of the original plastic bar when installing the Winch bar? I thought I read somewhere they did, but I couldn't figure out where.
