Warn winch Bumper Suggestion
Morning All, suggestions please for the last piece of the jigsaw on my Keeper Mr. Green (for now at least)!

I'm looking at installing a Warn Zeon 10s on my keeper, but want to keep the look stock.

Flatdog supply the winch but stock the Mantec bumper.

I would prefer a bumper that has the original plastic end caps, with DRL's and suitable for a 90'with air con.

I've seen the exact bumper on an advert for ACHSV Air Suspension (December LRM page2).

Any ideas of the supplier would be much appreciated?

Cheers

The Flatdog Mantect accepts the end caps and has DRLs!! That's the main reason I went with it as it's as OEM looking as possible but better quality than LR would produce Thumbs Up Thumbs Up 2014 110 2.2TDCi XS Station wagon

Excellent news. I can order all the items from Flatdog.

Have you got a front view?

Does the reg plate need a Holder to put in front of the winch?

Here's the front view, you can get the Mantec number plate brackets but I fitted mine to the fair lead using spring clips Thumbs Up

If you want the Screwfix part number for the clips give me a shout Whistle 2014 110 2.2TDCi XS Station wagon

That's exactly where I started - I wanted to keep the original look with the end caps.

Devon 4x4 introduced their D44 bumper to me. Initially I wanted the end caps from my old bumper to be transplanted and that was how I ordered it. I went to pick the car up and the install was complete without the end caps and when I saw how sleek it looked I told them I didn't want to fit them. As it turned out they had left them off as they didn't quite clear the front wings. I love it, perfect IMO.

Mantec and 10s for me... wait until you have to fit the rope onto the spool Whistle ... Warn give you a cable tie to pull is through, this will snap within seconds, and no matter how many times you replace it, they keep snapping... i ended up using some cord and plenty of lube.

I had mine fabricated out of 6mm steel, folded into a C section and then had strengthening plates welded into the back. It was the exact same outer dimensions as the standard bumper and accepted the end caps. The bottom was lengthened rearwards to mount onto the first chassis crossmember, forming a shelf for the winch to sit on. I used a Warn 9.5XP as it's such a low profile, if could sit under the radiator grille. This meant that the bumper was able to sit in the same position as standrar, ie not sticking out a foot like some of these aftermarket ones do. Overall it cost me about £500 to make, galvanise and powder coat, but looked exactly how I wanted it to.
