Custom 3rd gen Front/Rear Bumper

[4Runner202020]

So as some of you might know I have been in two accidents in about 5 months both not my fault so lets just say i came out a little ahead... lol Over the past month i have been fixin up my car after the second one. I decided to do it up pretty nice. For starters I re-mounted my custom bumper, next decided to get rid of the OME 881's and upgraded to 883's and a top plate spacer (also a 1.5 coil spacer in the rear), then sold my 265 75 16's and got 305 70 16's and new black wheels, and since both my fenders were trashed after being in two accidents so i got glassworksunlimited.com fiberglass fenders 4.5" Flare, 3" Rise. Let me say those look SICK. And lastly I painted my bumpers silver (probably going to go back to black but we will see) let me know what you think of my upgrades!!!

fenders look great from the sides, jump back about 20 more feet and take a pic from the front, will give a better idea.

You asked for feedback...

Personally, I don't think the bumpers look that great. Are they made from exhaust tubing?

I do appreciate the work you must have put into them. I know its challenging to do good fab work.

[4Runner202020]

no 2in 120 wall tube. i get in accidents and not i dont have to worry about the little fender benders. it might not look as good but it will hold up better than an arb bumper...

Hold up better?

It fell off...listen you asked for feedback. I was honest.

[4Runner202020]

because it was mounted really bad and we corrected that with a pretty outrageous mount and frame supports up front. the bumper didn't bent, ding, or disform in any way. it totaled a car and just needed to be repainted and re mounted. lol so ya stronger. lol but ya i still like the arb bumper more. just dont got the money...

The fenders look great, and I like the design of the bumpers but I think it would look better if you had gone with a smaller diameter tubing with the exception of the main bar on the front, and also made it a little tighter to the body. Unless you plan on mounting a winch in there someday...

[4Runner202020]

ya the winch will come with the money. lol but ya it will come

Saw this truck driving the other day.

Did some investigating and thought it looked familiar.

Did you buy it recently or did you used to live across the parking lot from a big red 4Runner with Wisconsin tags?

[4Runner202020]
