Simon I had one on my car years ago...they make a roundnose look purposeful IMHO...they are practical in that they save you from dents...

They make it harder to get underneath for servicing and they do ground out every now and then....up to you...

My Dadm had one on His 850 and it look alright but he used if for Spotties and It did make it better looking but as said a bugger to get under and work on the undercarriage.

remember, nudges for roundies and clubbies are different. so unless Beef Meister is a roundie it won't fit! but i am thinking your avatar is beef?

Nudge!

Sorry abou the dark pic.
Nudgebars look best on clubbies, and are colour dependant on roundies.
They look better on darker cars like mine, but I wouldn't put one on a red or yellow car.
My 2 cents.

Nudge nudge :wink: :wink:
Noooooooooo, definitely not. If you hit anything they just do more damage to the car...
About as useful as those bits of water pipe and bent flat bar bull(crap) bars they stick on the back of L300 etc vans... fkin useless! :lol:

They will fit either. Just drill some holes into the subframe and bolt it there.

I used to have one on my cluby before I crashed it. I will see if I can find a pic.
