lololol...yea...I have to admit..when BFLAN put's something new up, it gets the better of me and I lose all control.:frog:

They look really good BFLAN! :hatsoff:
The FJ roof rails use bigger tubes like that so it does'nt look out of place to me.
You definitely have some mad fabricator skills. I wish I could weld like that!

Very impressive. Wish I could make something like that myself.

Is it just me or does the front of the rack look higher off the roof?
 
That looks damn good on the side profile. I like it without that airfoil you had at first. Nicely done. And you're right about those Gobi's being too expensive.

Not just you, the roof slopes down slightly toward the windshield. However, I took this picture standing on a curb and holding the camera above my head. It is much less noticable when standing at ground level. I just decided to keep rack level, rather than bending slightly to match roof pitch. It was so slight it didnt bother me.

Thx, I like it better too without the spoiler, but its just too loud without it. The thing howls at 40 mph and above without anything up there to deflect the wind.

I took it off today and put tabs up front for lights as well as putting the grate/perf. plate floor in. Cleaned it all up and its ready to go to my powder coater. I am just going with the flat black I did my sliders in so everything matches. Also bought some nice aluminum mounting plates for my hi-lift. They fit on the side of the rack, looks good. I will post some more pics when its done from powder and back up on top.
 
BFLAN, I took the liberty of chopping your rack down a little, I hope you like it and don't mind! :reddance:
