ARB do a bullbar that incorporates the winch

Just had the ARB bar fittied last week....it enhances the look of the D3 heaps....i thought the weight would be noticable but i can't tell the difference...they also mount the headlamp washers and fog lights into the new bar and the bash plate connects with the existing forming a barrier from the leading edge of the bar to right under the engine. i could not be happier.Disco 4 Sept 09

I am not sure of the weight but from memory i think it was around 60kg. cost $1830 plus fitting $$220. this was for the winch bar and it is color coded.
When I find out how to attach photos I will.[/img]Disco 4 Sept 09

Norto,
I am if i can work out how to upload photos. But you can email me on stephen@lamontgraphics.com and i will reply.Disco 4 Sept 09
No I didn't fit the BB myself. ARB did it and it only cost $210 (3 hrs labour)but took them 1.5 days
If I did it myself it probably would have taken 4 or 5 days since I'd be learning along the way.

Chris, what is the story behind these wheels in this photo? They look good, yet they do not look expensive. What size are they? Here in teh States I cannot find any aftermarket wheels for the LR3, due to the unique lug spacing. I want to get a full size spare, and I have to buy a spare rim from the dealer at top dollar, and I am reluctant to do that.
