Default and so it begins...

Browsing the local craigslist ads for rover parts normally leads to frustration because there usually nothing worth my time..
My luck changed yesterday..

Scored a near brand new Rovertym slim bumper with full brushguard and a pair of gigantic Hellas for a seller set, non-negotiable whopping price of.....
$150?!!

I raced over there and scooped it up last night. Hahaha

So I won't be needing the hidden winch mount I bought off here..
If anyone is interested, I'll clean it up and post it this weekend and can ship.

Photo of said bumper will be uploaded once I get to my computer.
My phone access isn't letting me upload.

Thanks. That's pretty much the norm for NYC area rover parts.
I was hoping this guy had a SD roof rack too. I would have paid $200 for that! Hahahaha

Someone around here posted an ad for nearly every every desirable off-road land rover accessory, and didn't put any contact info on any of the ads.

Good score but that isnt a slim line, or RTE for that matter. Pretty sure its a tactical rovers bumper. Either way its one hell of a score for $150

Yeah definitely a TR. They normally go for 8x that price. Looks to be like new too.
