Hi,
I had a small disagreement with a guardrail about spatial and temporal coexistence, and I lost. My OEM front bumper is now missing a significant chunk of matter. Anyway, since it already was badly scratched and dinged, I'm considering the purchase of a metal bumper istead of replacing the OEM. This may be obvious for most of you but it is nos so commo¡n here. In facto, the main issue is its price, about double as high as the same model in the US. For exzample, the bumper I like, TJM T3, costs about 630 Euro at Slee Offroad and 1100 Euro at the cheapest local shop. I'm still trying to find a better offer or an alternate similar model.
A second issue is the length it adds to the car. A 5m+ car is considered very long here and trying to get into some city parking lots can be a real PITA. I might even have trouble in my own garage. So it would be helpful to know how much exactly it adds, but I can't find size info about the TJM T3, or the ARB Sahara bar which is similar. Does anyone have this info? Thanks in advance.

Hey Dandon, I can measure mine if you like and let you know. I'll have to find a metric tape measure. Is this the model your thinking of?

That would be very nice. Yes, that's the model, TJM T3 Classique. It looks really good, and it's tough and practical enough without destroying the "de luxe" looks of the 100 I think they only import the aluminium version here. Don't care about the metric tape, I'm sure I'll be able to multiply by 2.54

TIA!

Bumper pads to rear bumper face 16 feet 5 inches with out trailer hitch.
Add 2 inches for trailer hitch.

Hope it fits.

That makes almost exactly 5 m, and I don't have a tow hitch. I can live with that

Forgot to say thanks a lot!
