BCC (Taran) came through with pictures only a couple hours after i sent him an email. Heres what i got for ya'll...
More of Daryls 2nd gen:
The long awaited 3rd gen:
This is first time ive seen this front bumper and im drolling over it. Simply amazing. I may be getting one along with the rear.
P.S. The paint job is just your basic primmer and rust preventive spray.
Why dont he use powder coating?
In his words: Its much easier and looks nicer when you "touch up" paint. Powder coat looks like crap when you touch it up with paint. Powder coat can chip off in peices and water can cause rust under the existing powder coat.
Paint is cost effective for both the buyer and seller. The bumper is designed for off roading and is built to take abuse so powder coating it would be pretty much pointless.
I agree.

Wow, that is an awesome bumper. 
From that one pic of the 2nd gen, it looks like the swing-away tire carrier is removable if you don't want to drive around with it all the time - is that right?
Also, how does this attach? Bolt-on, drill new holes, weld, ?

the whole swing away is removable except for the weld on fully machined spindle.its machined from solid steel then welded to the bumper.the 3rd gen i like to build a rear x-memeber in the end of the frame, to make it more rigid. there fairly weak stock back there.that one also shows the jerry can holder which is removable.

"midiwall" posted 2 non-chopped pictures of the bumper without the tire carrier (all the 2nd gen pics are the same 4Runner owned by "DarylD") so you can see its removable.
The bumper is 100% bolt on. The center beam has squared tubing that actually slides into the end of your frame (the 3rd gen may be different).
Heres a pic of how the side can be attached but BCC told me hes using the 2 stock holes in the sheet metal with a bracket to connect the bumper sides to the body (same place where the stock bumper attaches).

Unfortunately i dont. Ive asked "DarylD" but he didnt say wether or not he had any.
Hopefully "yeaitsme" can come up with 'frame mounted pics' for both the 2nd and 3rd gen....

Hmmmm, I'm very interested in this. Is it posible to get the 3rd gen version without the side hoops? I'm also want to make sure about the tow rating. I tow about 5000-6000 lbs around a few times a year.....

If you have a 1" BL, add $62 to whatever option you choose.
