Why can't I find these things 4 my 03 V6 4Runner?
Has anyone else found goodies for their 03~04 4Runner?
I need (yes, need...) an ARB Bumper and Borla Cat Back.

DO a search man, the Borla Dual exhaust is on several members V8 4Runners but it's the same setup from the cat back on both the V8 and V6, the ARB front bumper will be awhile since the 4th Gen is a brand new body style, 2 guys I know of FirstToy and 02 4Runner, can't think how he spells it but he traded his 02 for an O3 they also want ARB's so get in line
I've looked into getting custom fabricated steel diamond plated bumpers front and rear reinforced with steel braces for added strength, black powder coated for the bastards who can't parallel park in the city

As Edge as told ya, the exhaust system exists (just abit on the expensive side). Also the SC is now available at abit more reasonable price (still overpriced though). The K&N kit and the Amsoil ones are out too (But I feel that stock works just fine).
Lifts are available as well but only in the form of spacer technology. Revtek and Daystar both supply spacers for the 4th gens so check them out. Downey should have a full suspension coilover front and shock/coil rears soon (pending final testing).
Bumpers are something that ARB has not shown any interest in. They have told some of us that it is something they are not currently R&D'n. This includes the OME department on their suspension too Hopefully as soon as the other mfg's get parts rolling out they'll get their act together and make some stuff for us.
To end on a bright note, 02runner and myself are currently working on a steel bumper (i.e. similar to the TJM and ARB style) with Demello Off-Road. Hopefully we'll have something positive to provide in the near future Everything is still in the rough stages but I'm sure it'll be a promising project.

Thanks,
I didn't know the V8 & V6 share exhaust components. TRD's web site only lists a supercharger and dual cat back for the 03 V8, not the V6. If it is the same, why does TRD only specify the V8? I see Borla lists both. I would hate to plunk down the bucks only to wind up sending the stuff back and paying restock fees. I can do without the SC and cat back (for a little while...) but I'm really interested in a steel bumper setup. Wait I shall...

Okay let me revise this:
The exhaust and the SC only applies to the v8 models...
TRD has no intentions of making the SC for the v6 currently (why I don't know... o well).
I don't think there are any performance stuff available for the v6 (sorry).
But you are in luck on the suspension and the bumper section though.. Just will take some time as these things take time :/
