New Bumper being fabbed this week!!!

Said he will crank out at least three sets and that they should be pretty easy to do but he didnt get the template done. So you will have to wait until I go to get my bumper put on. Oh speaking of waiting..Brian you want me to just pick it up and have it in my garage for 3 months so you arent the only one that had to wait 4 months for a bumper? LOL I am teasing and that thing does look good on your truck.

Yeah, I think you should have to wait for your bumper too! After all it's only fair, right? :)
 
i like the prerunner hoop in the shrockworks bumpers but i do like the full 3 hoop like on the arb, plus it protects your headlights and stuff better
 
Whats funny is I like a mild bug eye look, not as pronounsed as the new All-Pro or some of the others. I think I want the Pre-runner center hoop( 2" slight lean forward) with 1.75" or 1.5" headlight loops. However usually a Pre-runner style center loop is low I want to be same height at head light hoops. I just don't want it to be like the others available of a more verticle legged center section.
 
Okay latest update.

this is good news that bumper looks good hope it can bee competitively priced. I just worked all night last night with the owner of a industrial production fab shop from Baldwin park he gave me his info and said any thing I want to build for my truck give him a call and Ive got the shop:bravo: 10ft brake-press and a 10ft sheer that will do up to 1/4 plate
 
I was given a few captured images. I would not expect the Fab shop to give me their file. I was told it will end up being 4 to 6 pieces. The top tubes will be played with by the Fab shop and will offer a Flat top version, Pre-runner center tube and also a full 3 hoop option. I will talk pricing once we get it fitted to my truck and let you all know. It should be competitively priced since that was the main goal.

arb isn't even made for 4runners and the reason they are so cheap is the sheer volume they sale, shrockworks would be cheap too if they had a larger production capacity and better advertising.
 
He/ We (since I am going to be pushing the Toyota products) are trying to keep somewhere between the ARB and Shrockworks. But wont know for sure until he does the final assembly. Once we get it finished and mounted I will probably change over to vendor status and offer group buys and individual orders for his shop.

Also will be trying to organize a Meet and Greet and will have my 4 Runner and maybe a Jeep or two with his Fab work.
 
I don't think you have said anything wrong or that you would need to go silent over. As far as me going to vendor status and pushing his Fab work. Well I think I mentioned earlier that I could have had it done in that first week, but I convinced him there is a market and room for another supplier for the 4 Runners. So we are still discussing the possibilty of me doing that for him on here and other Toyota boards since he is always on Jeep forums. To me it was a choice of having a really nice bumper for myself that you all can drool over, or help a really good guy with a new business flourish while hooking my T4R brothers up with another option. I choose to wait and hope that you and he can benefit. I am not employed or compensated by him but I believe strongly enough in supporting the small businesses that can provide great service. I recommend Toytec to people even though I have never bought from them based on friends experiences and products as well as some of the other Vendors on here.
 
Well I am still in Atlanta,Georgia for another day but the Fab guy sent me a few pics. They are going to be working on tubing options tonight and tomorrow.
