Devon 4x4 Winch Bumper

I see Devon 4x4 are developing a winch bumper for the new Defender, there's a short video on their instagram page

It looks a tad... industrial IMO. But I love the idea of a bumper that protects both corners of the vehicle too.

that is not going to be cheap, but it looks the part. (Insurance premium on that !!

Not sure you’ll get insured with it in the UK though. Eiger Grey MY23 D250 SE with bits. Known as Noddy.

It looks like the rhino4x4 bumper from Australia.
I enquired with them regarding importing one but they never replied.

Rhino looks totally different, Devon seems to be way better integrated.

Look at Rhino:

I’ve already bought the lucky 8 discrete winch mount and fitted it this weekend.
So no need for either of the above now.
Although I still like the aggressive look of the Rhino.

I tried to import the ARB version from Australia which is Land Rover approved, however, its not approved in the UK and three insurers I approached, including NFU, wouldn't touch it unless it had the E stamp of approval on it. However, it seems hidden winch bumpers are OK, which is the route I'm taking. But I do like the Devon 4x4 offering in the above pic. Eiger Grey MY23 D250 SE with bits. Known as Noddy.
