We are just all really excited to see this mod. I think it is one of the most original mods yet.

I think I just wet myself with excitement!

I tried to see if I could get the FJ's Poly Plastic Foglights to work, but on the FJ the front tubes flare out in the front so it's off 1 1/2". I looked into cutting the plastic down the middle and reajoining but because it's made out of poly you can't weld it back. And I wouldn't like it with a visual seam so I brought the piece back and called Road Armor and ordered there bumper which will match the roof rack. So for a Led Bar and foglights I'm going to fab up a piece that will cover the seams and will enable me to mount 5 HID's

Looks good, can you get a stand back pic of the truck and all?

Damn that looks sweet man! good job now you can do mine!

08WhiteTRD · 11-21-2008, 10:50 PM

Looks sweet man. You have a great looking truck!

w8n4mud · 11-21-2008, 11:15 PM

WOW! That looks great! I can't wait to see the other pictures. What an idea. How creative. What talent. Dude, very original. Good job. How sturdy is it? So many ways to customize it now. Hmmm. I hope you took pictures during your install. Perhaps you can walk us through such an experience over again (i.e. directions). It never hurts. I bet you are the only one in the country with this set up.

The test will be at highway speeds with the howl and the flex through the roof panel.

concrete jedi · 11-22-2008, 07:16 AM

Are They Noisy ? I bought a Thule for my canoes, OMG ! way too loud for everyday driving, not only that I read an article that says as much as two miles per gallon could be lost with roof racks.

Blacked Out TRD · 11-22-2008, 06:21 PM

This rack is not noisy at all, probably do to the stream line design and no mesh for the wind to howl through.
