I think AJS had a sniff at these sometime last year.
Would these fit without drilling/making holes in bumper. Also with a RLD sump guard fitted? HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE

Slimer, do you know if the holes required are similar in position to the non winch A-bar? A happy childhood ... is the worst possible preparation for life.

Gotta fit to the crash bar just like the A-bar then so no getting away for it Mark.
You'll pick up a bumper handy & cheap enough in the future if you're thinking about resale
Putting holes in your car is like bungee jumping, your nads will be in your stomach but kinda exhilarating at the same time   A happy childhood ... is the worst possible preparation for life.

Like drilling holes for the RAI . The thing is I'd only want it fitted for the trip, so when back in the UK it wouldn't be fitted. But don't want big holes in the bumper HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE

Ring around a few breakers/ ebay/ on here and you might get a cheap unpainted one that would do you, then when you return you could sell the bumper and bar as the one package..... just an idea
