    So after doing a prototype of the first design I thought it didn't look too bad but felt it had some room for improvement. I didn't like how far it stuck out and felt that if I added a spot for a Toyota logo it would look pretty cool. So I went back to the drawing board and came up with the design below, it's not final yet. The plate on the middle bar would big enough to fit the old school FJ logo or any other logo you'd like to fit in there.

    I hand built a prototype of this one as well, I'll post some pics when I get a chance.

    Revision looks much better. And a spot for the "TOYOTA" emblem.

    I prefer it recessed towards the back... 2nd Gens use to be easy to allow this.. with the mesh on the backside and smooth all the way around... Gave the look of an Mitsi Evolution... The Toyota Hilux version on Amazon is similar. with the mesh recessed inwards.. Not a fan of it pointing out beyond the front...
