Well the steering guard is on Thumbs Up

I'm glad I did it black, I think it suits the front end. Will keep my eyes peeled for the later style front plate as this one leaves a gap between the guard and the bumper whereas the later ones are shaped to fit.

Overall though, I'm pleased Mr. Green

I have, but I don't want to mate the front end look too busy. I looked into taper end bumpers at one point but it makes the front end look all tyres. 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

Not in a long while, I fitted them about 5 years ago. I'll whip them off when I get back from holiday and see what it's like Thumbs Up 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

I would leave the bumper caps on, adds a bit extra stance to it. If you can get hold of the same bumper I had on mine grafty you will be laughing. ( mine was a heavy duty one) looks like a factory one . Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

Working in Porthmadog as we speak, great place Black Rock sands.
I recommend the rock cafe in town if you want a bite to eat, superb food.

Nice photos too of the beast Wink
