Ok I see what you are going for but I'm not convinced. Looks front heavy with the bull bar and I am not convinced it's legal either.

General requirements
It is not illegal for vehicles to be fitted with bull bars, although the department would not recommend their fitment unless it has been shown, through compliance with specified safety standards, that they do not pose an additional risk of injury to pedestrians or other vulnerable road users.

There are no plans for legislation to require bull bars that are already fitted to be removed. However, since 25 May 2007, it has been an offence for bull bars that have not been approved as compliant with those safety standards to be sold. Approved devices will carry an indelible ‘e’ mark (for example: e1 01 1471).

Legal information
This guidance is covered by the terms and conditions that apply to all GOV.UK content.

I know there was an awful lot of noise about them back in the day about the need for rubber moulding and things like that.

Today I am mostly fitting tyres the old fashioned hard way, on the floor with pry bars.

Got them mounted just need a balancing session. Got 3 lined up perfectly and the last one I was distracted and missed the dot by a good 90 degrees because someone wanted to go out, so will need extra weight. Not taking it off to realign.
