2010 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 DCPU Stornoway Grey

[Wanted] Soft A Bar

Just bought a winch and am looking at moving away from Tubular front bars.

Does anyone have a Soft A bar that they would like to sell? I don't mind if its the non-winch version, as I believe they can be cut down.

Thanks

Funnily enough I did see that one. I was planning on doing a post about restoring them a little. Plasticote/repairing the crack.

Cheers though!

A bit off topic
But if you do a thread on how to restore one that’d be great
My A bar is looking a bit rough and could do with the shiny coating being restored
In some spots it just looks like black foam with none of the “hard” coating on it
I would have been scared that the fumes from Plasticote could damage the foam🤷🏻‍♂️ My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years.

I sanded mine to get rid of the rough. Minimal amount of flexible filler across the top part (worst part) to get in the holes, primer and then plasticoted. Looks like new.

Ok, I'm still looking. It seems like I was a little confused about which versions I can get away with.
I'm after the version without the lower crossbar as I want to fit it on a winch.
