I'm sure ARB would make a much better designed bull bar than the
psuedo-Projekt2 bars. IMHO they look boring, heavy and decrease the already
poor entrance angle.  Would ARB be willing to show us a prototype or at
least a CGI of their design before we jump on the boat?  Can you get a more
definite price quote, assuming 100 units are sold?
