I live in Kelowna but do travel to the lower mainland regularly. I’d appreciate any recommendations.
I may end up fabricating my own (I made my rear bumper) but the front is quite a bit more involved. Or I may order one from England but shipping doubles the price.

Try searching for 4x4 shops in that area, they will know who does it locally.

Weirdly on Ebay they claim 50.00 to ship a bumper from Atlantic British. Might be worth sending them message to see if it is legit

Re: Fab shop recommendation for bush bumper
I checked Atlantic British directly. US$95 to ship to WA State, $450 to my door. I may order the Britpart bumper from Paddock in UK, but shipping cost is more than the bumper. It’ll be CAD$800 to buy and ship, plus whatever the shippers decide to charge me to bring it into Canada. I did a temp repair on my plastic bumper which will do for a while. I suspect a local fabricator would end up costing at least that much anyway, unless they’ve done them before and kept some drawings. I could make my own, I’m pretty happy with the rear bumper I built, but there’s a lot more to a front bumper.

Well if you can cross the border use Letterlock or one of the other places that have US addresses happens and pick it up on the US side once we can cross.

Thanks Richard. I’ll have to see what direction I take.
