3rd Gen - Custom Bumper Ideas / Pics??
Hi fellow yotanuts. I'm in the planning stage for building bumpers (front and rear) for my 3rd gen 4runner. I'm looking for some inspiration. This 4runner is my main ride so the bumpers will have to look pretty slick. Also, they need to have a good approach/departure angle and I'll be putting receiver hitches front and back for my winch.
Here are a couple of cool bumper pics I've snagged off this site...(thanks guys, you and your bumpers rock!!!)
So how is it, any good pics showing nice bumpers either mass produced or homemade?
edit.. I just found the fab shop! Sweet! Perhaps this thread needs to move..

Heh heh heh... I was waiting for that. Thanks to all who "contributed" in the original post, those are some slick looking bumpers. Remember, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!
I just thought it'd be cool to have a little archive of sweet looking bumpers to get the ole inspiration bug going. I originaly was picturing something similar in size and shape to the bumper on the yellow runner, but with uprights and wrap arounds. Also with a removeable middle section that allows access to a reciver hitch for my winch (in a cradle) to attach.
I say keep the cool pics coming, I'll post pics of a bumper I made for my Taco back in 96.
Let's see 'em.
ps. a good example, i never really was into tube bumpers but I really like the looks of the one on the black runner above... sweet!
Hmmmm......thinking..........

If you make a rear bumper, I'd think about incorporating a swing out tire carrier. Once you go bigger, there's no real place to put them :/
