Hi guys, looking to begin missing the ranger, starting with a bullbar... Go cheaper with the ironman or lash out on the ARB summit colour coded

Different opinions everywhere. While I believe the ARB is made to a higher standard you may prefer the look of the iron man. Thailand vs Chinese I believe. It's really up to you as everyone has a different eye.

For me it came down to fit and finish. The Arb Summit is, in my opinion, a nicer item, for example, I like how the main uprights have the tapered edges, the recessed indicators look neat and the colour matching is really quite good. Having seen the newer Ironman bars, they look quite good, but for me the Arb was jus a tad better- are they worth the extra cost? that's for you to decide.

Some may still possibly be but the Summit is definitely not. It was written on the box it was is when I bought it. From memory most items were from there.
