What Ice cave in hell did you find a $1,200 ARB Bumper for $200? I've been trying to find one of those forever. I don't want to pay $1200 for a new one when I can buy used and all the used ones I see are just as much.. The lowest one online right now some dunk wants $750+$350 shipping "firm".
website called car-part.com. You buy salvage parts and it was off a Rover that was rear ended and the guy wasn’t even sure if it was a brush bar or bumper. Took 2 years of searching and it didn’t even have a photo posted was just “aftermarket bumper”

So you had to look for 2 years AND make phone calls on all the listings without photos? If they don't have the photos on car-part I don't even call. They also allow listings to sit for months. Congrats on your find. You got exactly what I wanted. I'm hoping with this virus economic depression ARBs retailers will want to dump stock and cut prices. I really want one of these bumpers but at $1,200.00 not including tax shipping or installation - they are really ripping rover owners off. JEEP bumpers are only $200-300 it's not fair Rover bumpers are a grand or more.
I had a rover guy last year tell me if you get a winch get a warn. Anything else your going to deeply regret it. But I’m seeing a few other ones here with good reviews

it didn’t take two years of constant searching more like bored and checked classifieds and that website and I would never call one without a picture but I had a hunch and it worked. You can also check Facebook marketplace and Craigslist and if someone has the arb try to make them an offer even if it’s not a part out you’d be surprised. I got my safety devices roof rack for 200$ last year because some guy was having rough times and needed money and I wouldn’t have known if I didn’t randomly shoot my shot on asking for it

Good thing the yards dont care so much. All the used ARB's the people online want ridicules prices. Even with rust or hard use they expect 1-2-3 hundred US dollars less than new. Even in Australia. They will sit on the listing forever. I will check back 3-7 months months later... Sold yet ???? Nope and price is Still firm. You got an amazing deal there. I'm jealous. That ARB looks brand new. With that 12,000 winch and a CDL your ready for anything.

Custom RTE bumper with Smittybilt X2O 12000 pound winch. I made a quick release license plate bracket so I can still run a front plate on the street. With the license plate Without the plate
