    We're close to final development.. No specific pics yet but it looks very similar to the 5th gen rear bumper.

    We'll cut the stock bumper so that it gives it a symmetric look all around. Same thing we do on the 5th gen. We offer a dual swing out option with can carrier and hi-lift options. However, we ARE a full fabrication shop so sky is the limit if you got the $$$ lol

    Make some decent 2nd gen stuff! The market is too shitty. If you made something that looks wicked like that and sold it for not too much a lot of people would buy it. @SanTanValleyDirt would probably sign up the moment he had money for it. I might even consider it if its good

    We've talked about doing early Toyota stuff. Older rigs are typically easy to make products for b/c theirs less stuff in the way. However, the demand really isn't there for it as much as there is new stuff, obviously. In order to develop it, it takes away from shop time. That's not to say we wont every do them. We just need to be caught up and have shorter lead times on our popular products first.

    The demand is there, its just that most of us have given up on the prospect of anything good coming out, especially for a reasonable price. Because there is almost no market for the second gen, and anything that does exist is way over priced because theres no competition.

    what is probably going to need to happen is have someone show up with a second gen and say "build me a bumper"

    and bingo.. two birds with one stone - development and product for a client

    True. @SanTanValleyDirt would make a great guinea pig. He wants to build up his rig. He's dying for stuff. Even something as basic as fender flares
