    It's a what but that's all I'm going to say. I'd never heard of it either but curiosity got the better of me and I Googled it. Believe me - you're better off not knowing...

    The "dream" grill looks cool. One problem.....how are you going to open the hood?

    Appears so, but don't fret - we've all had those Freudian slips. I suspect yours was elicited by a previous post that mentioned "Stinkyfab"

    Looks like the rear bumper is a clone of the jaos front bar.

    If this site ever develops into something real, a group buy of front and rear (hitch mounted) jaos-clone bumpers might be in order.

    Sigh. Someone backed into my Vehicross this week. If I hadn't had the nudge bar (Thanks Dallas!) he would have done some real damage. As it is he broke two Hellas and bent the mounts and light tabs for the nudge bar.

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    Was the only damage done to the bar and fogs? No damage to the VX exterior itself?

    Luckily, the bar can be purchased seperate from the mounting brackets as the brackets are custom made for the VX (purchased from Tone). I believe the Westin Safari Bar is for the Rodeo, minus bracket kit, comes to around $100.

    Sorry to hear about this... glad the bar helped keep it from injury!

    Yea, there might be a slight mar on the cladding, but otherwise it is ok. The nudge bar is quite loose now, so I need to take it off and see what really bend under there. I'm tempted to buy some DOM and bend it to match the westin bar, then have it welded to the front, or at least build some hefty mounts. My buddy just has a manual bender, so I'm not excited to bend those kind of curves.

    $100 for the bar (powdercoating is flaking off at the bend), $70 for some Hellas, and some time.

    The dickhead didn't even leave a note.

    Looks like a VX with big braces.
    Life is what happens when you're driving a VX...

    Someone addressed this earlier when we tried to set up a group buy for this a while ago. I'll have to dig up the old posts.
