I did think about a bespoke one but the problem with that is, it may not come out how I like it. Then im stuck with it

£576! Pricey but its not far off the cost of the other ones!
 
Basically I want a bumper that has tapered edges, winch tray, sits just below the headlight surrounds (looks good + great approach angle) and the ability to house some 9.5" spots... Am I asking too much? haha
 
If I was you...

You Fussy Geezer............:cool::cool::cool:

I would fabricate something in the best Blue Peter fashion out of cardboard / double sided tape / Gaffer tape and then see if someone local could fabricate what I wanted , as long as they were aware of the strength required etc.

Cheers
 
Very fussy! Hmmm thats not a bad idea you know! Ill might try n do that. Only because I fancy a change from the usual tubular bumpers everyone has and I had plus if possible id like to keep my Lightforce spots

Any ideas how much it would cost?
 
No Idea,

Depends on material, thickness, how complicated, finish, etc.

Try asking @Ian Maycock , he has just fabricated one, he may know a rough cost to do something like this.

Cheers
 
Despite the price the Equipe 4x4 bumper is growing on me, ticks all me boxes except the A Bar but im sure i can mod my current one to fit.

Anyone had any first had experience with it? May have to go to Kelmarsh in July (Billing) n have a look.... I mean i dont wanna drop almost £800 on a bumper thats going to be weak ass bull****.
 
Yeah thats actually the first one i chose for my 90! Went for the TF varient in the end (on the 90 that is)

I was trying to move away from the tubular style get something different and a bit more unique. Thanks tho
 
TP4x4 came back to me (the HD Galv one on the P1) they can fit an A-Bar to house my spots, quite reasonable at £430. I've asked for pics of one with the A-Bar, or the syle of A-Bar they will use. I asked for it without the spot/fogs as I don't see the need.



Raptor 4x4 replied too, they do a similar bumper to Equipe 4x4 (so much so I expect its made in the same factory...) but without the £800 price tag... Quite close to what I want



5mm Steel with x4 24w LED spots built in. Still pricey at £625

Apparently Equipe 4x4 can't keep up with the demand for their bumpers... I find this a little odd considering I can't find one shred of information online about someone who has actually bought one bar a short empty thread on here and Chris from CSK. It is growing on me a lot, just that price....

I was thinking IF I where to choose the Equipe I would try and modify my current LR A-Bar to fit with some extra tubular side supports (like the usual tubular A-Bar bumpers) that or fit a 20" lightbar above it in front of the winch. Then find some lil lights to fit inside the bumper

Though still waiting on TP4x4 as I like their bumper too, much cheaper and looks the part.

As above really, looks bloody excellent to me, plus ticks all me boxes, just can't find anything relating to who makes it...

Nearest I can find is these guys. Cheap and amazing I got tree and rock sliders from them and they are superbly made and finished.
