I know I have always preferred the TJM over the ARB looks wise, but that's just me. I think performance wise they're pretty much on par with each other. I'm sure some guys who own each will chime in here.

I've always liked the look of the TJM "T-15" model (the one w/ the hoops).
But if I had the money, I'd go ARB Sahara all the way.
This site has the TJM on sale: http://www.4by4connection.com/4runtjmt15ba1.html
Also, Jason of Burtman Industries can get them. Last I recall, much cheaper than even the above mentioned site can. I'd email him and find out what kind of price he can get you. I wanna say it was in the neighborhood of $500-$600.

I have had both the T15 and T17. In hindsight, I think I liked the T15 better.
Here is a pic of both to help you out. We took the "15" off of my truck and painted it to match the cladding color on the Limited.
Heres a more current pic of my setup.

However, I like the idea of a T-17 now and add Schaeffer hoops when funds allow.

Im personally going to do the tjm15 and powdercoat it a light or dark silver shade.

Your pic on Steve's site is what makes me want to go that direction.
I like the fact that the hoop are bolt on and can be removed for maintenance etc.
