we were tempted to weld on some rated hooks for recovery purposes but decided if the welds did fail the consequences would out weigh the benefits. Dont think he'd have a radator if they failed:)

although it is a great starting point for a hard core bash plate which he lacks

Nah its all just caked on mud you can see. Theres a little surface rust accross the top where the paint has flaked where the metal had to be tweaked to fit the modified radiator. Finally got round to painting it last night.
