Here's an updated pic of mine, got the underbody guards installed and spotties fitted up... I'm really happy with the bar so far, have taken on a few riverbanks and rocks... Haven't bent it yet but the powder coating is a little worse for wear in some places from sharp rocks...

My New OL bar, Solid as IMO.
I ended up getting the tube opposite lock still in the middle of making my winch fit!

I think the TJM Outback Delux looks the best as it still keeps a bit of your front bumper in place. The ARB bar on 2013 models just doesn't look right in my opinion. There is too much of a gap between the bar and the headlights and side flares. The TJM bar finishes it off nicely. In saying that maybe the ARB bar is a better design when you are travelling down heavy correlated roads and the the bar is wobbling all over the show.
If anyone is interested I was at ARB this afternoon, asking about the weight of their deluxe winch bar before I decided to commit to the install and he told me that the bar places approximately 40kgs more weight over the front than the standard bumper, this includes all the crush tubing and steel fixings that are behind the front bumper bar that are then removed for the install of the new bull bar.. What he told me, now if it's true or not that I cannot confirm but it's a rough estimate
