I saw this today on their website. The Tacoma and 4 Runner version both will be coming out soon. It looks so sweet! They downsized the 3" tube to a 2.5" tube for the 4 runner and some other vehicles. It comes in both black with aluminum skidplate or stainless plated in chrome and the skidplate. I wonder how much it will be? The Sequoia one goes for $250 in black, so I'm expecting about that. I just added this to my mod list. Black with the silver aluminium skidplate is going to look sweet on my ride. Just have to start baiting the wife for the purchase!

You guys think someone can hook us up with a group buy, or some type of discount on these bad boys??? I e-mailed Westin looking for a date we can expect these in stores. Will let you know more when I find out.

What kind of #'s are we looking at. Was thinking of waiting for an ARB bumper but that bar is starting to grow on me.

 

Looks like a copy of the T&H bumper that has been out for awhile.

 

not sure about the t&h but westin bars have been around forever, and they are available for all sorts of trucks... eprsonally, i would rather get an arb, as it is functional... the westin bar is just a bolt on for looks bar, might be able to house some lights... but really isnt strong enough to do anything

 

Well, here's the response from Westin for those interested...

At this time the Bull Bar for the 4 Runner is still in development. There has not been a date set for it to be available. You may want to check back later this fall or winter. I will also save this email in case I hear of any changes.

I agree, already did the look bar, now I want a functional.
