$850 from memory from 4wdusa in bayswater , you will need to get some spacers due to the offset of the GC rims though . i learnt that the hard way

Did you get a number plate bracket for yours. I called the guy at 4WD USA and he mentioned the price was $995 with a number plate bracket (and light - I think). Does the arm hinder the use of a towball at all?
Looks great though and certainly frees up a lot of space for storage in the wheel well, I could mount my second battery there instead of sitting behind the fridge!

I like the look of it from the back end, not sure how much of it sticks out from the side view though.

Is it much of pain to swing the arm out to access the boot? The flipper glass would have been a good option to keep in the later models.

Tempting, still trying to convince the mrs. We normally have plans with the LR team when we hit the bush. I'm usually the odd one out with the Jeep.

Are you guys going solo or family?
