Damn, that thing looks sweet!
He did a very good job on that.
Looks like he took a 3rd gen front end except for the corner lights, those still look 2nd gen.

Has anyone on here ever tried doing it? I have never seen anyone attempt it before, it can't be too hard to do.

That looks really cool. Must have cost quite a bit to do. I saw a 2nd gen 4runner on ebay a while back that had a semi style font end that tilted forward so they could fit a big v8 under the hood.

I think there is a company called Erubuni or erubini that makes those and a few other options in regards to bumpers for the 2nd gens.

Wow that is really nice! Looks like the front of the 3rd gen with a pp front spoiler and 3rd gen rims too. I like the matching paint job as well.

Yes, that's very, very sharp. I'd like to find out more about that front end. I found the company Babypig mentioned...it's at www.erebunicorp.com ... I haven't found any Runner parts though. Are you sure this was the outfit that made it? These guys look like they'd rather set up a Civic with a picnic table for a wing, 14 headlights/fogligts in impossible combinations and neon interior. Not exactly my cup of tea...



I may email the guy and ask where he got it we can't come up with anything...but post if you know anything about it!

yeah it looks like they've stopped making stuff for the 4runners. They still have the grills in the clearance section though as well as the "SS" kit
