Those are very common over here (UK) and so are the dents they seem to pick up.

I prefer this type, which I think looks a lot better:


I paid ?130 ($256) for this bull bar. I may change the PIAA Lamps at some point for something newer/better.

The truck is my SSR-G Hilux Surf Auto, fitted with the very rare 3VZ-E.. most Surfs over here are diesels. I just whish I could buy my petrol (gas) at your prices instead of ?3.90 ($7.67) per gal.

soe idiots bid it up to 100+45 shipping on ebay.

I passed on it!
Thanks for the input.

I wish my truck was a DEISEL!
Those gas prices suck, but I bet you all make more then us over here in the US. Gas in Washington Dc area is about $2.80 usd. Sucks. I remember the days of $1.25.

No, they just drive less. Public transportation is a lot more useful. They get that "sweet diesel" so they have a lot of Diesel cars that we don't. Etc.

England isn't that big and they have much better public transit systems but they still get smacked when they do have to drive.
