A breaker is probably your best bet, try Nissan1st or cncfabs - you will most likely have to collect though, they are extremely large and heavy (I took mine off as both the lower mounting brackets had rusted through, and it all but took two of us to lift them away from the car, and anyway, here in Spain, unless they were factory fitted they are an ITV (MOT) failure).

Hi Pablo
New bull bars for a T2 are difficult to come by as, I believe, that full 'wrap-around' ones have recently been banned by EU regulations due to 'alleged' pedestrian safety issues. The small ones that simply come from beneath the front bumper and form a low arch in front of the radiator can be found easily on ebay. BUT if you need a wrap-around to protect the headlights you'll have to search further. I found a new stock clearance Toyota pick up wrap-around bar on ebay that was the ideal width for my T2 but I had to fabricate my own brackets to fit it. Second hand, pre-EU regs bars are the most likely source. Those in good condition are difficult to find at a reasonable price - but they are out there. Good hunting.
