NA Bull Bar

BTW, the bull bar has already paid for itself when I hit a fence post in my pasture. Scratched the bar but saved the body.

I hit a small roo with mine last week.
I was only doing about 70 kmh on a dirt road.
It hit the left front on the bull bar and the side bar.
It got up and hopped away
Zero marks at all on the bar work

Customs intercepted my DHL shipment from Expedition HQ.
I will have to fork over another $500 USD to get my bull bar out of customs jail.

The actual customs duty is $27. The rest is fees added by DHL.

An early draught of a nudge bar or bunny bar...can't wait to have the vehicle and create a prototype but will follow the same lines/angles coming down from the opening under the bonnet...it will have to be fitted the same way as the bull/roo bar with regards to sensors, I would imagine...any thoughts?...happy motoring

Great idea - might be OK for the UK too.

The box says made in China in great big print. You'll be paying a customs fees. I believe ours were about 25%.

FedEx for the win. They just made me pay the customs charge, no extra fee for my bison roof rack.

Well, in that case I could have calculated the duty wrong. I indicated that it was made in Australia and that returned a 2.5% duty. 25% would make it $270.
I haven't gotten anything but a total from DHL, so I'm extrapolating the rest.


Strike that. Math mistake earlier.
2.5% is $41.75

so 25% would be $418.

So not DHLs fault.
I'll blame it on the protectionist/isolationist faction...

Looks like my bull bar is being held by customs upon entry. Awaiting word from DHL on next steps. Looks like more $$$.....
