BOSTON4RUNNER · 09-18-2008, 08:50 AM

sick bumper

I do like the big fat mouse

drfakoo · 09-18-2008, 04:01 PM

Ok buddies !!!
Lets update this. Due to spanish stupid, f/&¿?%ng

laws, we are not allowd to put that kind of blinkers on the bumper.... (Orange reflectice).
So we decided to modify the bumper for better.(hope so...)
Let´s see...
We are going to fit corner light bulbs into the position light optic.
And the bumper is going to recieve two nice Hella ff 75 fog lights, hahahahaha !!!
We think that will be cooler.
Until we don´t recieve the new lights I´ll post a photoshop to give you some idea.
The only bad think is that we are going to have to repaint the bumper, but it will look much better.

Hope you like the idea !!!
Cheers
Facu

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!

**aviator** · 09-18-2008, 08:21 PM

Too bad about the lights... razzafrazzin' laws... always getting in the way of a good time...
There was a link in here someplace about converting the front corner lights to dual purpose running/turn signals with an 1157 stop/tail light lamp/socket but I'm not sure how well it worked out...
of course you do have access to those nice euro-spec front corner running/turn lamps as well...
the hella ffs look good ...

YeloSub7 · 09-19-2008, 11:05 AM

So basically you can't have the turn signal in the bumper? Am I hearing this correctly? Or is it the yellow one?

**aviator** · 09-19-2008, 12:47 PM

No he can't have an amber reflector one, turn signal in bumper not the issue.

YeloSub7 · 09-19-2008, 01:07 PM

ah... gotcha. Such weird laws. What is even more entertaining is finding out how so many of these stupid laws came to be... I wonder what the story is behind this one, lol.

82greenbeast · 09-21-2008, 06:36 PM

...that bumper makes me happy in the pants, Oops i mean, how much?

sajidd · 09-28-2008, 04:08 AM

How much?

crawyota · 09-28-2008, 06:32 AM

I guess you all missed the part where the guy said he lives in SPAIN AND UNLESS YOU HAVE FAT POCKETS SHIPPING SUCH A A BUMPER WOULD COST A LOT.
I agree that is one sweet bumper but i wouldn't crap it up with a sticker next to the name. there would be tomuch going on in that corner. just my opinion

RobD · 09-28-2008, 08:15 AM

A) Very nice fab work.
B) I agree with the previous post. The name on the corner is just the right touch. Adding more to it would clutter the design.
C) You could offer two options for the North American market. As was suggested before, you could sell the files that allow for all the laser cuts, for anyone with an interest in going and having a local shop cut the plate steel. Or you could cut the steel and package it flat for shipping and the purchaser could weld the kit together themselves. I imagine the shipping would still be pricey, but less so than a full-size bumper, due to smaller dimensions.

And add my voice to the cries of "I want one!"

**4x4Fink** · 09-28-2008, 09:08 AM

WoW!

I don't know how I missed this thread but I'm glad I found it.

I can't tell you how awesome I think that is - it's so cool to see regular guys doing what they love and not to mention coming up with such a great finished product.

I only wish I had access to all the tools and the money to do what you guys did - seriously an awesome job.

If you ever decide to make them for '05+ Tacoma's you let me know, I will buy one.

Diesel_Freak · 09-28-2008, 01:01 PM

Great build man... On the mouse, I think he should be standing and have a welding hood on. Although I agree that you really don't need a sticker, the logo looks just fine alone, and overall it'll be cleaner.

Cheers

**aviator** · 09-28-2008, 06:14 PM

I did a little shameless promoting of this product on the uk hilux surf site so you may be hearing from some EU customers doc.

mokai · 09-30-2008, 08:16 AM

GReat work..I think it turned out fantastic..WOW !!!!
