It's nice, but certainly not $1000 nice. I'd go for one at about half the price of Metaltechs, because the materials look cheap. Like some kind of overgrown brush guard.
viper bumper? anyone running one?

I decided to get a quote just to get rid of the guesswork on price: $928 and a 20% discount for a total price of $742.
I'd have to see one in person to judge whether the materials are worth the cost.

that clinches it, I'm painting my bumper electric blue.
It does come in black. 
Their roof rack sure looks different than anything else.

Sorry, I've had my ARB for 10+ years and just not impressed enough to get this over another ARB if I was in the market. Price isn't that tempting. Also, I'd rather run a 12K on a fully armored 80 than an 8274, even as nice a winch as they are. Maybe if we had more testaments to their ruggedness and performance. But would prefer not to be a guinea pig. My .02
Dude thats a Venezuelan based company, didnt know they had exports to the US, turns out they even have an office in Florida!
I can say first hand awesome bumpers and 4x4 equipment, definitely top notch!
They have even been to the Outback challenge in Australia and the latest Dakar rally in Argentina, Chile and Peru with the only venezuelan team to compete in both events.
And about the bumper paint: they come in black, but people tend to paint them in all sorts of colors...

You are correct. I think somewhere he has his wires crossed/confused or whatever. VPR add ons may be good quality, just haven't heard much about them here in the States.

I finally got an email returned from them. It took a few days to get an email reply and they didn't answer my questions. They just sent some choppy spanglish email stating that they were the best ever and I should look at their website. Unfortunately I was looking at their website, and followed their directions by emailing for more information. I'm not impressed by their PR.
I spoke with them today - Roof Rack is $480 wait to get an email with full specs
Where did the 20% discount come from?

SILVER Star
Was it 742 landed?
No idea, just a 20% discount.
I'm in the market for a rear bumper too. Need to see more and better pics + price delivered. Not looking for the most heavy duty bumper in the world, just solid and better than stock.
20% discount and I'll talk it up all over town if it's decent quality.
