    Well I am starting to "look" into mods for the FJ. I dont know when I will get anything, but a bumper that has caught my eye is this beauty

    As far as suspension I am thinking of just throwing some Fox 2.5's with remote resi's on or some kings. Probably will only have them set at about 2" of lift. The truck in the pic is running a 6" lift with 35's

    Sorry, but IMO those Fab Fours bumpers are :puke:.
    I do think the tube on top looks pretty legit, just not the main plate bumper. Way too big and bulgy looking.

    That looks beefy! Got any specs on the metal?

    Some dude at my complex has an FJ with the Demello bumper an it looks sooooo good. It's simple but beefy.

    I want a bumper that has the tube on top and the only ones I can find that I like are this one and the ARB.

    I dont know anything about it except its Fab four. I am still trying to find some out there that I like. You get your sliders yet? You go with the bolt on or weld on?

    Still looks cool. I like the curving and design of it, it's not like other bumpers Which are usually cometely squared off. The fab four bumpers would really make your FJ stand out.

    My sliders probably won't be here for another month. Jason at Demello was nice enough to let me get in on the group buy on Monday, despite the fact that it had ended the Friday before, so needless to say I was probably the last order they received and thy build them in the order received. I went with bolt on round tube with powdercoat. Can't wait :D

    Hmmmmm Damnit, that just means more money to spend :(:D

    Ya, I told myself I wouldnt be modding this thing too heavily for a while, but I guess we will just have to wait and see. I am deffinatly going to go with bolt on sliders next time. After trying to cut them off before the trade in I dont want to have to deal with that again lol
