Can i add those light guards later? If so are they welded on or some other way attached to the brush guard?

ALso how does the price look for the used one? I know it looks good compared to a new one however not sure what the rate is for a used one

I bought mine off craigslist for $300 with the light guards which have 2 thumb screws for each side. I don't think I've seen just the guards for sale by themselves, but you might get lucky. Make sure you get all the mounting hardware too. Rover Connection has pictures of the hardware and the ***** for the light guards.

Hi, Its possible i can get the Factory A bar the same as fitted to mine but in black, and its cost is $250 NEW + shipping. New price is around $600

here its http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/STC50024G.cfm$729

As im obviously over here and your over there, Im not sure what the shipping costs would be and how much "import" tax you guys would pay, but its another option, there is alsoa few"full" wrap around like in the picture above, but I cannot find a price on those till Tues as its bank holiday.

As far as the light guards for the full wraparound, you can get those seperately, I can probably get 1 or 2 sets of those to.

If your interested i can find out exactly what and how many are available.

I am guessing that shipping from overseas would be outragous just because freight shipping in the States is pretty high... The problem i have is here in MN its hard to find any used parts for rovers locally this guy lives 125 miles away and i have to drive and get it and hope that we can put it one right there. Not sure how hard it is to install these...

Well, fitting it is not "that" hard, but its a little fiddly tbh. You have to take your time in cutting the bumper for the mounting points, its not hard on the left side (looking fwd) as you just cut away at the factory towing eye cover, but on the right hand side you have to make a similar cut, and obviously the more time spent = better job.

If you have the Rave CD all the instructions are on there. if you do get this one and need / want the light guards to go with it, let me know.

If you want to see the install instructions, Ive added the images to a zip file here:-
