PICS ARE IN!! MY FIRST MOD-Stinger

This is the prototype Stinger Bumper from Victor Yordy at The Metal Works-( http://www.themetalworks.net/contact.php ) for Third gen 4 Runners. It's called "The Hornet". Just a little grinding left to go. It's 2-1/2 and 1-1/2 inch steel pipe with Motorcycle style signals, a balistic steel skid plate and a winch mount. iT's a battering ram. Will be powder coated black. It fits perfect, no modifications needed.

This is not a tube bumper. It's big heavy pipe. Just like she likes it.

Looks like it'll be around $800 plus shipping. He's a detail oriented guy and a humble craftsman. We collaborated on the design. If you take a look at his website he does alot of ultra high end classic vehicles. This is his first Baja style stinger and he's done some things I have'nt seen before. I think he did a great job.

tube is used for bumpers and cages, things that you want to hold up when you hit things.

pipe is used for exhaust.

Holy Crap!! I think one day, you will realize what a waste of $800 that was. You could have gotten a much better product from someone who knows toyota's for half that $$.
Pipe? You wrote in another thread that it is "solid pipe". Are you serious? 2.5" of solid bar? That is ridiculous. It looks like it mounts super low and very disproportionate. my opinion. Whatever floats your boat.
