Anyone make this Oakley bumper?

[decker1]

Probably a lame question, but has anyone tried to remake the Oakley bumper? Was curious how much someone would charge to weld one of those

 

[Engineer]

One guy tried and we kicked him off the forum....:whip2:

But no, I have not seen anyone here try to replicate that

 

[Jono.ful]

Was a one off for SEMA 2013. Probably won't ever see anything like it again, but you could always steal this guy's grille

i've got a few prototypes on my desk

That thing is hideous. It should come with a gift certificate for some white rim oakleys. That whole zombie apocalypse Bro thing just doesn't work well with 4Runners. It's perfect for a Chevy or Ford with a 12" lift though.

It's cool if you like it. It's just not my style.

Seems that way :lmao:

Do your thing, man. It's your truck...

 

[Simpleman74]

Did that 4runner crash head on with a GrandCherokee?

 

[Knight-Errant]

reminds me of this....

 

[5ontheFloor]

Jus gonna say..

 

[decker1]

Common who thinks they can fab up one of these grills? ill pay in cash and insults received

 

[Slow]

That is like paying to have these implanted

 

[jmf_tracy]

sorry bro, but that bumper is lame. It turns a perfectly good 4runner into a douche canoe. If you do get one, be sure and get the white oakley sunglasses too to complete the effect.

Funny thing is I said the samething about white rim oakleys a few posts above yours.

 

[jmf_tracy]

yes and you are correct.

Reality bites me in the rump. The fabricator who made the thing is dam proud of it,and i give him props. Up close the welds most likely look like stacked dimes,and the bends on the flat stock symmetrically speaking of course look fantastic. Looks real nice...just please take it off of that 4r and put it on a ford. Its not screaming symmetry.

 

[Antman]

That grill looks like something that would be used to shave Paul Bunyan's Ball Fro.

Having got to spend some time with these SEMA builds I honestly like the bold look of the bumper. It's not an off road bumper, it's not even a good bumper to mount lights on, but what does, is prove that Toyota directly has interest in customization. All of these SEMA builds are off the wall. Every year I spend more than an hour in that corner of the hall just smiling from ear to ear at the level of crazy they bring to an OEM's booth.

I like the bumper a lot for what it is and I hope the fact the head of Toyota aftermarket just got moved to head of Lexus aftermarket does not signal the end of these over the top impractical builds.
