[aristocrat]

Im lookin at getting a winch mount bumper for my surf, asap. However, there are a couple that i am lookin at, want to get your guys' opinions on them

The first one:

By Trail-gear through Big country customs - 453 CDN 20$ shipping from BC

Or the second:

360 US + border fees and shipping

I wish i could get a TJM but apparently they arent made anymore here.
I think im leaning toward the first one..

Sweet!! Good to hear, I was going to recommend an ARB....haha

[aristocrat]

ARB = waayyy too much $$$. plus i want a big 'ol stinger haha

[CelicaST-162]

Stingers look cool, I never understood what they were for? Traveling through crevasses? Keeping your front end from falling in?

[aristocrat]

Well, if you roll your truck its gonna protect a lot of the top of your truck from getting crushed. A lot, but not all.

and for pushing things ;)

Well, depending on price i might powdercoat it, i would like it shiny.
However, powder coat does scratch sometimes and i would like the ability to keep it looking how it would new, so i was thinking just a tough brand of spray paint... not sure what color i want it though as my truck is that sea green color.

done
