I put thread number 62708 in this morning pointing out possible rusting problems with steel bullbars, and used "Problem" in the heading instead of "Warning" which may stop people from looking.
If you have a steel bullbar, it may be worth checking behind the rubber bumper pieces for rust.
Cheers

Hairy,
Some bullbar manufacturers have bolt on 'wrap arounds' to make them more custom to the make of vehicle. These are often bolted on, uitlising a peice of rubber between the joins

pretty much, but like most rubber, probably meant provide some form of impermeable barrier...

I thought some bullbars which were airbag compatible had impact sensors in the rubber mouldings. But i could be wrong!
