IMHO that revtek looks cheap and doesn't suit the FJC at all. it would look great on an older tuck though. I like the fact that the AP bumper doesnt cover the FJC's "face" as much as the ARB. it looks more in line with the FJC's "futuristic" look.

Photoshoped at last, saw this on fjcruiserforums.com



Found a better pic leaving the two holes on the bumper to let the hook and lever show up better.

All-pro looks good, but weak. How thick is that metal?

ARB = beef.

From my undestanding the plate is thinner and is a "modular" design. The winch cradle/mount is apparently a separate piece.

I would still take the ARB on the silver rig over the Warn.
It has a nice flat place for mounting lights, and I am use to the ARB shape having had one now since '02.

Here is what I am thinking...
I like the ARB because you can mount lights to it like I have now.

Do you know how often I use either my roof rack or bumper mounted lights?
Hardly at all!
I have used them in the wee hours of the morning going to work, but all of my wheelin' is in the day light as I was discussing this with member mytruck.
Once in a while we will go up to Greenwater in the pitch dark to catch the sun coming up on Mt. Rainier.
But even then I can not use the lights, as it would blind anyone on the trails in front of me.
I think I would put a pair up on a rack on top for mainly looks.
This will leave the front of the All Pro bumper clean looking and let the nice big TOYOTA on the grille stand out in all its glory and not be hidden by lamps.

I am leaning towards the All Pro one, but I will see if they can make a bracket on it that has a hold to mount a CB antenna too.

Also I was told today I will be saving around $500 or more on my FJ.
Reason is the ports are out of the Toyota rock rails.
I called up All Pro again today, and they will have FJ Cruiser sliderz in 3 weeks!
I let them know the best way to make these is to truly be a bolt on unit that utilizes the stock mounting holds and nuts that are in the frame.
If they can pull this off, I will go for them.

The downside is I will have to get them powder coated, but I have had good luck with one locally who did my mini roll bar back aft that holds my Power Tank.

I also would prefer aftermarket sliderz to the Toyota ones since aftermarket ones stick out and you can sue them to stand on.
The Toyota ones you can not, as they are tucked underneath.

yup, pretty soon I'm sure you will see tube fenders much like the TJs have been getting.

I think it would look really good and tie right into the sliders/bumpers.

Pic of the new front bumper off road.



I will take one in black, as long as they add a CB antenna mount, and a place to hang recovery shackles from.
