Rear bumper choices - plate or tube?

[FoneRunner]

So I've been debating with myself which rear bumper to get based on the fact that I have an ARB on the front. I like the tube bumpers like Scotty's from Addicted and the price is right. I wonder though if it would look funny with the plate bumper on the front....what do you guys think? Any photoshopper out there care to help out by putting both on my rig? Here's a pic to use...

Don't do tube, do a plate bumper, to me it would be well worth the extra money.

yeah I'm not a fan of the tube style either. But interested to see what you decide. And sorry, the computer at my mom's house doesn't have photoshop.

I totally dig CBI's rear bumper, but just the plain standard one.

CBI or Perkins Performance for sure.

Go Plated!
Since you have an arb IMO it would look funky with a tube rear bumper. I recommend getting the Perkins, it is a very nice bumper and is about the same price as the cbi.

Seems to me that YOU say YOU like the tube style. In that case there is only one logical thing to do. Get addicteds badass rear bumper, then save up a couple hundred dollars sell the ARB and order scotty's badass front bumper. That way you would have the best of what YOU LIKE hanging off both ends of your 4runner and you would make 3 people on here happy.1 st is Scotty, 2nd is the one that gets your ARB and last but most importantly you.

Personally would go plated but you should make you happy.

Kind of what I was thinking. Sell the ARB to pay for the front and some of the rear bumper. You come out ahead. :hungry:

Save a TON of weight without the plate!

hey could you open the hatch and take a picture of the bumper...I wanna see the space on the rear deck.


I always say they need to match...plate-plate, tube-tube...they look off if you start mixing

Nobody with photoshop yet? I'm really interested in a preview of what each would look like...I agree though about the plate front needs a plate rear bumper...but if the tube rear looks right on the back then the ARB could be for sale!

I like the looks of plates better up front and back, but I really like this tube rear by racerunner. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/71968-tube-bumper-2.html

 

[FoneRunner]

Absolutely Racerunner has a really good looking setup there...I really like the handles at the corners. Interesting....still would like to know what that would look like on MY rig....(cough cough photoshop cough....):fro:

AddictedOffroad, Do you have this on your website yet? I checked and don't see the listing for the 3rd gen rear bumper only the Taco, is it the same? Are these just bolt ons?

Not yet. We are currently building them in-house on the vehicle only so far. But, that will be changing in the future.

[cordrayj1]
