That looks GREAT!!! I totally dig the color matching of it.
Vs the other ARB bar how do you like the Sahara for the quality? is it heavier or lighter? What did the Sahara weigh?
WOW!! I think it looks so good.. I had my eye on a T15 or a T17 but I do not know now....
I bet you are stoked??!!??

Looking Good man! The only thing is... aren't you going to be scared with it off road?!? I'd feel bad puting custom pin striping on that! Though... it seems like you know how to take care of them when they do arrive. Thats the only plus to the wite paint. It covers up the scratches very well. Love the bar, but what about that chrome? You took all the crome off the truck except for the one big bar on the front!? Ether way i'm sure your stoked espcially since your one of five or ten with that bumper on a 4Runner in the sates! When do the fogs get in, did they give you a date?
ps, are you missing a turn signal or is it me..?

Thanks guys. It turned out much better than I imagined, and it's going to look even better when the fogs get here.
Well, the only chrome left (besides the hoop) are the emblems and the surrounds on the IPF's, but it looks good to me. Not flashy, but just enough to dress it up a little...
Yep, they shorted me a turn signal... but as of Wed, the missing blinker was on it's way, and as of yesterday, the fogs and replacement chrome hoop was shipped...

What bamachem should have taken some pics of was how MUDDY his rig was about 30 minutes after we got finished. We rode around in some muddy lot and played king of the hill on a burm and almost, almost got stuck in some soft soil...
The rig does look good.
And his red one ain't bad either.

The Sahara looks GREAT!!!
Did you do any extra triming on the end rails to make it fit so well???
I've seen pictures of a few others on Runners and they still had a big gap between the back edge of the bumper and the body even with the trim. Not from Body Lifts but because the bumper sits too far away from the body.

The bumper looks great. It was asked already but did the bumper come painted? Also what made you decide on the Sahara bumper compared to the other ARB in the pic? I've got an 2001 SE runner and i am deciding on which ARB to get. What are your plans for the stock bumper? How much is do you think I could sell an 01 stock bumper with the fog light included? I dont think I will need the lights after the upgrade.
