Looks great but wow that Plumb bar. What do you think of it? Looks really good but I’m a Plumb fan.

Thanks for the comment. I really like the bar. Looks great, works perfect for the off lights and superb quality. The only disadvantage that you can’t install winch because they share the same replacement attachments as the winch platform. Otherwise I think that is the best looking bar on the market

I agree, that bar looks great and the lights complement it fantastically.

It's almost covering the radar, have you noticed any side effects? Just wondering how narrow beam it is/how close you can mount something in front of it. Thanks.

The radar works just perfect. Adaptive cruise control and emergency brake have no issues. Will take some pics regarding the location of lights and radar

The bar looks to be quite lightweight. I don’t see how it can provide any protection given where it’s mounted.

Seems to be entirely form over function. it’s crying out for an insta winch to finish the look.

Plumb have a thing for carbon fiber. Presumably they at least went with steel.

It is light weight bar made from aluminum magnesium alloy and some carbon insert on top of the frame. The landing bracket to the frame is identical to OEM . The insert and camera attachment is metal and not plastic like OEM . In my opinion the best looking bar on the market. I really didn’t look for protection bull bar and to be honest protection from what? I’m not an extreme person)

Protection from what?

Depending on where you live, pick your poison.

Deer, roos, cattle, sheep, goats, hogs, and brush would be some things that spring to mind.

Bar work that doesn't provide any impact protection. Plumb must be having a good chuckle. Insta-winch worthy.
