We are still working on this. With the smaller winches, yes, with the M12k it will probably have to go in the engine bay.
Yes,.

Any chance of pulling one off before it hits the powdercoater?

Yes we can, however the discount is not going to be that much. To color match, it is probably better to get them done, then paint over the powder coat. You will have a better product in the end.

Yeah, I guess that sounds like a better idea.

Looking for the end of the road...
Oh yes, some bumper porn!
Looks great Christo!

Christo,
Do you have a special adapter in the worx for the recovery point to be able to Hi-Lift from? Kinda makes sense given the ID shape

Christo: On the 2nd photo below, on your/Joe's LX, it appears the recovery point is tucked in (not protruding near as much) quite a bit more than the photo of your raw finish production version. Can you elaborate please?
Any custom bull bar tubing? I remember reading something along those lines..... deluxe arb-ish with a twist of slee?

I think it is just a crappy cell phone picture. They are all the same.

Once we have these out we will look into other tubing options. But it is one thing to weld a bunch of tubing on top of a bumper, quite another to make it strong enough to hit bambi and not fold back. If you look at the ARB they have the two vertical plate sections that go all the way to the top. This provides a lot of the structural base for the tubing to withstand hits. We do not have that on our bumper. Now if you build a jungle gym on top of the bumper, you might make a damage multiplier.

Yes, 1" spacers on the front.
As far as the vertical plate sections go, couldn't you continue you the plate that makes up the recovery bracket up through the top? That seems like a super strong way to do it, though it would pose some cosmetic challenges.
I hate to ask, but any idea on when you might start working on a bullbar version? 6 months? 1+ year?

Not sure when we are going to work on it. As for the vertical plate, probably, but then eventually we will build an ARB look-alike bumper and those are available already.
If you did that I wouldn't buy it. I want tubework that compliments my LX. The bars should be designed for LX since both the shop owner and mechanic have them....oh and cuz I got one
And because more LXs were sold
Hey I have two LXs too sooo it better compliment the looks of the LX. Both of which are in desperate need of upgrades
What i said about the vertical plates was more from the perspective of strength than trying to get a unique looking bumper.

On the way to powder coat. Getting close now.

Anybody have ideas for LED turn signal lights to be installed on this bumper? The LX needs them. The corner lamps can be converted but just thinking of other options.
The bumper lights on the LX are turn indicators? On the LC they're just anemic fog lamps.
What are the orange color lamps to the side of the headlights on the LX?
