For your color I would say no. Maybe someone could Photoshop it on there.

thanks man,it a jaos , i painted it black, they come chrome. you can mount 2-4 lights. i bought mine second hand after alot of searching. they are expensive, but i wanted one that wasnt too large & sat closer to the bumper, so i bit the bullet & payed 225 for a used one, new they cost more.most guys wont spend that much & i cant blame them,it is good quality tho. i wired the lights to ketfob remote so i can turn them on from accross the parking lot , ha ha , spooks people .

looks like they used your 4runner for the pic. they look alright. alittle to large for my taste. also heavy & might affect steering/handling if the suspension isnt upgraded accordingly. ive also read in the SEMA newsletter that some states lawmakers, (like nj & ny)with pressure from the insurance companies, want to make them illegal, because since bumpers are not much more than plastic & styrofoam, it gives some people too much advantage over others,... BOO WHO.they also say it obstructs the headlights. hey, if you like it , go for it, ive been fighting city hall since 73, im tired now & just want to keep things simple.

It's decent. I'm not a huge fan of brush guards.
Are you gonna get his for protection or just for looks?
If it's just for looks you might want to check into the stock skid plate. It's comes in a brush aluminum finish, but you could powder coat it black if you wanted to.

well i really want something to mount lights but i dont think a black or chrome bull bar would look good, i like the jaos light bar but its wayyyy too expensive. i have been really studying how momo put lights on his runner and would like to try that but i am still not quite sure i understand how to get a bolt in there. he says he used wire but not really 100% i could do it. then on the same post of momo a guy did kinda the same thing but came out the top of the bumper with the lights but he had a newer model year and it wouldnt work. so i am still stuck with how to get lights. Any ideas??????? i dont really want to drill my bumper because i prob would mess up but if i didnt the lights wouldnt be secure enough

heck, if your not happy how black looks, you could always paint it to match the color of the bumper. i had looked into one like that but didnt like the fact that it sat so much below the bottom of the bumper, reguarding mounting, theres no one on the 120 forum that has mounted em on an 03? i thought i remember someone using flat steel coming out & bent up , maybe that was momo?
