Title: Guardian off road products
Post by: smo on August 31, 2006, 14:25:40: Has anyone got, seen or had experience of Guardian off road products - i've been looking around for a tubular winch bumper and have seen these but dont wish to gamble without some "reviews"...

Post by: AbyssDJ on August 31, 2006, 14:46:19: dunno - cant say i've heard of them! i know quite a few people use the scorpion tubular bumper without any problems though.

as far as i know, its just a rip off version of the equipe bumpers though, which are VERY nice

Post by: smo on August 31, 2006, 14:52:17: abyssdj - Scorpion are nice, but at about Ã‚Â£350 for a standard tubular winch bumper its waay too expensive!
