CBI Rear Bumper group buy???????

Anyone interested in seeing if we could get a group buy going for the CBI bumper for the 3rd gen 4runner.

I have no idea though of how to get a group buy going or how to even bring it up to a company. So if you know post up.

Probably contacting the seller and getting quotes for different quantities would be a good start..

I couldn't imagine something like this would benefit from a group buy. The guy would be working his ass off

If its considerably lower, I actually have the money nad would buy one with a tire carrier.

Bingo. Talked with them today and that's about it. Doing group buys for the bumper isn't really profittable for them and it would be a number of weeks for them to even get it out since they are a smaller shop and do everything in house. So nope on the group buy.

In case your wondering a bare bones bumper unpainted could be had for around 600.

thanks for trying. Nice of folks to think of the masses.

Have you considered IRBIS? They are local to me and they know our rides. They do my mechanical and upgrade work.

I vouch for them and they are Rising Sun 4WD club members as well. You can generally catch the club at Moab each first weekend in May for their signature event 'Cruise Moab'

I'd love an IRBIS bumper but the price is out my range at the moment.
