I like the look of that bumper, does it fit nice under the wheel arch for disco's with no plastic arch trim?

The only cutting is to the bottom of the grill on a 300 tdi, but you have to do that to accommodate the winch anyway!

It fits round the hockey sticks (trim below the lights) and then finishes nicely at the wheel arch. I cut my arches anyway to accomodate bigger wheels and tyres, but it made no difference to the bumper

ok here goes I found these

It sits completely in the chassis in a half box, the bottom of the box acts like a guard protection for the steering

I like it, thats exactly what I was thinking of, I see your grille looks like its an easy removable thing, it looks suprisingly good access with the grille off aswell!!  300tdi shouldn't be much difference should it?

Wouldn't have thought so, the grill is only held in with a few screws, the cradle I know you can buy, dont know how much though

Seems cheap enough too!, does any one know the dimensions of a warn 6000 or 8000lb winch (others will probably fit?)

looking at all the winches and bumpers, i was about to order a paidia bumper like the one pictured above somewhere in a previous page, but i noticed they do a package with come-up dv9000, as anyone had/used one of these and are they reliable,

if i bought the package it would save me £111,

look forward to your comments
