ADOS Attention Deficit Ooooh Shiny!
It depends on where you live. Australia or Africa then whichever you prefer. UK and Europe then there's legal and moral implications for fitting a full bull bar as opposed to a winch bumper.

Hi,
Bull bars don't get fitted that often in the UK, so you may need to wait a bit for those that have them fitted to reply. Weight is one of the big issues I can see, so if I had a need for one I would be looking at the scales to see which is the lighter offering.
On a purely personal note, my favourite looking one of the two is the ARB, but that's just my opinion, they are very similar looking in the pictures I have seen.

I’m from Denmark and I actually don’t know what the rules are here.. I know you can buy both here in Denmark so I suppose both are legal.. I’m leaning towards the Ironman both for the look and it is 600£ cheaper - for that money I’ll can buy a good winch..

I have the Ironman one, they offer two styles. Both are the same, just the 'bar' part is different. I like the ARB one too. I doubt there is a lot of difference between them in reality. I haven't seen any published weights either. When first having it fitted I could notice it as soon as I drove it, but you get used to it and it is now normal. I don't have a winch yet, so that would add more weight.
