OK, I'll stick my neck out on this one... I think the rear guard looks cool. I especially like the skid plate, but what would REALLY make it awesome would be if it included a tow hitch. The grill guard is OK, but I think the Lexus grill guard (the one on the left) would look better on the VX. Don't get me wrong though, with some modifications it could look really cool. Some time ago I was looking for something like that, but as of yet nobody has produced one. Also, since I'm not a big fan of chrome, I think they would look better in a black finish.

The mud flaps gotta go.

Do these products actually exist, or was that just some creative photoshop work?

Maybe if they chopped it off at the vertical bars and didn't have those big loops under the headlights. The Lexus one on the left is pretty much a Westin Safari bar like Tone sells. I like it with the plate on the bottom, which reminds me a little of a bar available for the Nissan Frontier that I think would be very nice on a VX. There are a couple of Frontier bars that would be nice, actually, but not sure about the fit.... have a look...

I remember that Stinkyfab had done a little work in this regard - anything further on that yet?

There's something funny going on here. First of all, "Broadfeet", are you kidding me? None of the links work on the site. It says "new body style", as opposed to the old VX body style? It reminds me of this product which never existed for a VX...VX 4X4 Wire Thread.

Their Ebay store (listed as DCW Performance) only has a few items. None for a VX or a Lexus.

All I'm saying is something is not right here and I doubt that product exists for a VX.

Maybe he's planning a hostile takeover of Westin.

It's common practice for "copycat" business to take the marketing available on their competitors websites and regurgitate it as their own (chaning a few key words). Nothing really fishy here - if he didn't have the product he wouldn't have an image of it mounted on a VX. That aside, the company could be legit or not - you don't know until you call them up and make some inquiries or purchase something.

I like the one on the right (full-face grille-guard) for the Lexus RX300.

He evidently has access to a VX for fitment to design the guard he is advertising. Perhaps if enough interest is generated, he would look into fitment of the two guards for the RX300 onto the VX. It might only take adapter brackets to make them work!

IF....he is on the UP & UP!

Me likey!

pedestrian lovers?

read this:

A 1998 study by Australia's University of Adelaide found that the damage to a child's head when struck by a vehicle equipped with a small-diameter steel bull bar was 10 to 15 times worse than damage inflicted by a vehicle without one. "In practical terms, a pedestrian hit by a vehicle equipped with a steel bull bar will be seriously hurt or killed at speeds much lower than those that are usually fatal," said Jack McLean, one of the study's authors.

"The bull bar concentrates and magnifies the force of the collision in a tiny area," British Member of Parliament Paul Flynn explained. "It's like a stiletto heel. They turn trivial accidents into serious ones, and serious accidents into fatal ones."

Well - that ponders the question about what a pedestrian is doing on the road?
