Managed to get my custom front protection bar finished today and it has turned out better than i expected for a quick retrofit job.:)

colour co-ordinated to my B8200 aswell, fits spot on now and the suite case weights hang just right on the side mounts, winch fits in nicely too and the hood opens without conflict with anything without the bar sticking out to far in front.

Job done , it also gives the front end a much more rugged appearance now, more in keeping with its new duties too;)

Looks great, but... yea I know... I would add a roller fairlead on the front to keep the winch cable from hitting the frame. ;)
