Take it off quick then it looks ****e. A plastic bull bar is as useful as tits on a Mars bar.

No worries Tony, we can't all have taste...hee hee
Exactly i agree it does look in rather bad taste. It ruins a nice front end in my view.
I like the steps and they were top of my list of extras. A number of elderly relatives had difficulty with my RR Classics due to lack of steps and trying to stand on bits of trim that weren't designed for standing on! When I bought first disco, it had chromed steps and they proved very useful - as do those on new to me P38.
Bull bar isn't something I'd have added, but I have come to like it and will now probably leave it. Not sure about the extensions over headlamps however - does look a bit 'plastic'...
I don't dislike the separate lamp guards, but wouldn't fit as unlike the ones I had on the Classic, they require holes in bodywork (what joker devised that method then?)
(...and yes, I know I need to sort the panels under the headlamps!)

I just took mine off - not my cup of tea. Each to their own though!

To me that is horrendous.

Sure looks that way Ant. Why would you want to put a bag over a pretty girls head?
It would be a boring old world if we all liked the same stuff....
I actually thought about removing both it and the spots when I bought the P38, but not bothered as yet. The longer I leave it, the less likely I'll do so. I'm looking to add a front discreet tow hitch/winch tray, swap the rear tow hitch to a 2" receiver and possibly fit a full size roof rack before I worry about tinkering with aesthetics - functionality first and foremost. Mine's as much truck as car in use terms so generally the more protection the better.

Great, makes the front as ugly as the arse end so they match
I thought Bull bars were outlawed years ago as dangerouse to pedestrians.

Those spots should guarantee an overheat at some point
