Default Guess there is a Silver Lining

Well, got a call from my daughter yesterday and after all that work, late hours, and money, somebody smacked the Rover in the school parking lot. And of course, we don't know who.









So, I guess it is upgrade the front bumper sooner rather than later. I want to get a low profile front bumper that I can install a winch and recover points with. I would also like to wire in the current fog lights from the old bumper.

The Terrafirma is top on my list right now. Any other suggestions?

The TF is a good choice Only down side if the lack of fog lights. If you choose to move the washer bottle the is room to add light to the bumper on both sides, at least on a 2000. The down side is you have to break the power coat in order to drill the holes. jmho

Don't ya just love these AH's that hit and run and leave someone else to pick up the chip. Many times they are driving illegally and uninsured. Broken fingers comes to mind as a means of stopping them doing it again.

Where and how do you relocate the washer bottle. Might not be a bad idea since it is leaking

If you dont have sai you can remount it on the pass fire wall. I assume you still could you just have to cut the two foot filled spout down to a normal length.

Something like this with a hitch, or the terrafirma with light mounts would be awesome!

Thanks drowssap. They got some (as my daughter would say) GUCCI stuff!

This one is nice

Have you ever ordered from the UK? About how much is shipping and how long would it take?
