Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Ok, so just bought a 2003 GUIII DX wagon - the one with no flares.

It has a pretty tired looking alloy bull bar that I want to replace with a steel winch bar. There is a Nissan bar to fit the non-flared partol (so it doesn't stick out at either side) which nissan ask $1500 for. I think I might struggle to find one second hand - probably not so many of them around?

The other option is to get flares fitted ($1000 Nissan or ARB!) and get a second hand bull bar (much more around). Will I find a good second hand winch bar for $500?

Which way do I go?! Reckon I'd prefer the flared option, but hard in mind to justify 1000 bucks for plastic flares!

I reckon a normal bar (that will stick out) with bushranger or Bunnings flares won't look the best.

Anything else I haven't thought about?

thanks for your help.

P.S. Will swap my Pajero photo for one of my Patrol when I take one...

Realistically it would not stick out that far either side.

Just fit a second hand bar and you will have that much more clearance either side.

It should look ok.

x2 then buy the flares when you find some second hand, its about the best looking mod the trols can get.
