If you are unlucky enough to collect a pedestrian with it, the impact will cause much greater injuries or kill the ped, even at a relatively low impact speed. Your insurance company may not give you cover.
I took the bull bar off my jeep, don't need it, I prefer to have the factory design crumple zone working and absorb the impact energy reducing injury to me and whatever impacts it.

If i remember right i heard something about them being legal if they came fitted as factory standard, and there were issues about adding them aftermarket alright!

I'd ring your insurance company first.

Are you getting light bars as well?
