[Wanted] Galvanised front bumper
Looking for a standard galvanised front bumper for the project, possibly even a military spec one with the pin and cut-out.
Preferably in northern England. Tom

They're available new from Paddocks for about £60 and they're really good quality. I bought one and painted it black:

The military one is part # rrc3508. The older stock are galvanized, but the newer ones seem to be painted black (not sure if they are galv underneath).

I have one, very pleased, has a recovery/hitch in the centre. Mine was Galv but i painted it black. Having the small "A Bar" for the spot lights means I can't get the Std recovery pin in from the top tho

That's a smashing job LandRoverAnorak Thumbs Up

I've been through quite a few new std bumpers over the years, and despite my ritual OCD Dinitrol treatment on the inside they all look worse for wear after a short time. I was contemplating buying a black powder coated stainless steel bumper, but looking at your painted galvanised bumper I might just change my mind Bow down

What level of prep did you do, and what was your chosen finish?

And apologies for hijacking the thread (a bit) Thumbs Up

Cheers Darren - much appreciated Thumbs Up

Great thread, but the wider content has distracted me in many ways and will inevitably cost me money Rolling with laughter
