Just for the record guys, Matt pulled me out of trouble by using the towing eyes at the bottom of my bull bar (thanks Matt) so dont be too hard on him

Just to clarify, we did look for towing eyes on the stuck sport

But could not find one

So the car was gently tugged off its belly.

With hind sight, not a wise way to recover anyone. Wont be doing that again

Bolting or welding is fine as long as they are up to the job!
I prefer welding, but then again i was a welder for a structural steel fabrication company for a few years!
The eyes on some of the bull bars are ok for a little light recovery, but nothing major, the loops you find bolted to the front of the chassis and welded to the rear cross member that houses the tow ball are only tie down lashings for transportation and should never be used for recovery!

Cheers

Then surely the best thing to do is bolt it then weld it. Best of both worlds lol
