Slam... Kubota thinks that if your intelligent enough to choose their product over all others, Surely your smart enough to not run into things!!!ROF ROF ROF
I did take a section of reinforced radiator hose and fasten it to my frame front plate to act as a bumper so G/F didn't cream my house exterior walls!!:bannana:

Bumpers are easily fashioned oput of commonly available materials. I personaly would not be with out one on my Ford or JD no matter how good of an operator I may consider myself.....No telling what that "plastic" front end on my JD GX machine would cost as a replacement espeically when they wanted close to $500 for a fiberglas hood for my old 180 JD......Much easier to repaint a bumper than repair a cowling......It also comes in handy a lot of times to nudge things around when your too lazy to get off the machine to move the item out of your way.

Why not take a few measurements and see what the front frame is across and then run down to Sears and Home Depot. Measure some the products there and then see what is close to the cross width of your tractor and then buy the bumper from either who has the best cross width plus a couple tenths and then install the bumper by drilling the holes as needed IN THE BUMPER to match the Kubota.
