That said, I thought I'd offer this opportunity for others that might want one of their products. I will not be purchasing one of their fine products but I know there was a pretty good interest for their products. So give them a call or email em!

Good Luck

 

Hmmm.... VERY interesting. Checking their website, these products appear to be the same ones they had on the Global Extreme 4Runner they made up for the '03 SEMA show.... Good stuff, but $600 for that "bumper" ??? Ouch.

Lance, thanks for passing the info along !

Yeah Mary from SG called me today. I asked them to get back to me on the specifics of how all the parts mounted to the frame.
She said the front bumper requires some trimming to the vent slats-for 2 posts to go through and for the winch to stick out of.
I like the sliders but I am waiting to find out if they are XREAS compatible

Their stuff is pretty good, but a little to pricey.

Lance, I sent a PM about something else. Maybe you could help me with it.

Thanks

Victor

 

Firsttoy, I believe they are "XREAS-Compatible". That stuff was installed on a Sport version for the SEMA show. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't all '03 Sports come with XREAS ?
