A bull bar is a device that is attached to
the front of the vehicle for added protection of vehicle and its passenger from
a collision with an animal. The first name came from the need to protect
against hitting a wild cattle and kangaroos in Australia. Earlier devices were
installed only for defense, typically on four-wheel drive vehicles. Now they
are even used as an accessory to provide an off the road look to sedans and
SUVs. With the course of time, these accessories also evolved into other forms
like Toyota
Side Steps Hilux which are meant to protect the sides of vehicle.
There is also some controversy attached
with their use and one of the main controversy is the risk it poses to
pedestrians. But there are many countries like Australia that support the use
of this multi-functional and highly efficient accessory. Australia has passed
some laws concerning the design of bull bars or Toyota Hilux Side Steps
Melbourne. There are some manufacturers who even use plastic in their products
which is considered safer for pedestrians and the vehicle.
There are two main designs of bull bars-
one design replaces the front bumper and considered as the heaviest and most
durable style, while on the other it is mounted to the front end. Style may
block lights, but light mounting can effectively fix this problem. Bull bars
made up of steel are also considered as a great option because of their style,
durability, performance and ability to provide high protection.
Another style is a combination of skidplate and bull bar which is designed for off road driving and offers high
protection to the front end of the vehicle than the other designs. If you want
to add a bull bar to your vehicle, now you can have a wide range of styles and options.
