Bull Bars<strong> | </strong>Choosing the Best Bull Bars

What are the Best Bull Bars for Your Car?

Whether you are looking at having bull bars fitted as a necessary accessory or to get in touch with the intrepid explorer within you, before going ahead with having them fitted, it is wise to weigh up your options. You also need to make sure that the type you choose works for what you intend to use the bull bar for.   

Facts to Consider Before Having a Bull Bar Fitted

Even though the primary function of bull bars is to protect the engine from damage in the event of a collision, they come with several practical uses. Before having one installed, you need to factor in where you intend to drive your car, the type of driving that you will be doing, whether you will be taking any gear with you, and other accessories you want fitted.

The Materials and Design of Bull Bars Make a Difference

Going on an off-road expedition means that you need to have the right type of bull bar and one that is made from durable material. Steel bull bars are the popular choice as they are strong enough to handle front-end impacts with some having better design folds adding to the overall strength.

Should you be spending most of your time travelling through remote locations day and night, you will need a bull bar that protects as much of the front of your car as possible and that can accommodate a winch and offer extreme approach angles and recovery point options, especially over rocky terrain. Make sure that the design you choose doesn’t have a negative impact on ground clearance.

Compatibility

Before having your bull bar installed, make sure that it is compatible with your car’s airbag system and any other additional features that your car might have, such as parking sensors. This includes having any additional accessories fitted, such as high-lift jack points, a winch, fog lights, and driving lights.

The Urban Explorer

For those that prefer urban exploration but want their cars to have the rough and rugged look that comes with off-road adventuring, nudge bars may be the answer. Not only does a nudge bar add aesthetics to your car but it will also protect the front of your vehicle from minor collisions and accidents.
