What should I do about a front bumper?

[ADH8796]

I have a Black 99 Toyota 4runner Highlander Edition and I am wanting to put a new bumper on the front end. I can't decide which bumper I want though so I was looking for other's opinions. Tell me what you think.

Here is my Rig how it sits today



Here are the bumpers I am looking at.

Irbis offroad offers this front bumper


The Irbis bumper will need blinkers mounted or integrated but I can have Irbis do that in the process of the build.

Hanson offroad offers this bumper

The Hanson bumper is not offered on their web site but will work with some modifacation. I would also have to find a place to add blinkers.

TJM Products offers this bumper

The TJM would come with different blinkers and (no) integreated lights but these are things I could do later.

Bruce I hope it's alright I used your bumper as an example

What would you do if you were me?

Thanks!

i really like the irbis bumper.


i will be making my own, somewhat close to the tjm.

Hanson gets my vote.

The Irbis is a little too "Silence of the Lambs" looking for my liking - plus you loose your grille - looks unfinished.

Seems everybody has TJM's - be different!

yeah go with hanson, or drive out to armorology here in Colorado lol.

I have yet to hear from Bentup but I want a bentup front bumper for my 4runner so i can put a integrated solenoid winch in and get better clearance and strenght.

first off im getting a rear bumper from CBI in about a couple weeks

i like the tube + conventional bumper (tjm/arb) look. but personally speaking, you need to check out robinhood1500's tube bumper. it is pretty darn nice. that is what i hope to build later this year

[neliconcept]

thats sorta what i want but with a center hoop

[Cebby]

Is that "Breezy" pre-SAC?

[neliconcept]

yup, they show his rear bumper after the SAC

I like the look too but I'm really considering all my options. Some thinks it's a little too rough looking.

I agree it does seem everyone has the TJM but maybe that's for good reason??? I like the Hanson bumper a lot but I like the others as well. Thanks for the advice.
