I had that exact same bike at one point in my life. That thing was sexy. I truely miss it.

 

Do you have pics of the new bumper yet?

 

I'll post it up tonight when I get home.

 

Update: 02/24/2009

Worked on my bumper this past weekend. Couple of things I've done...

1) Added a custom front lip
2) Cut away the lower factory grill and put in a mesh grille.
3) Welded the top and lower bumper
4) filled, sand and repaint the bumper
5) retrofit the turn signals into the corner lights







VIDEO showing the intergrated turn signal/corner lights...



To be done this coming weekend...
1) Weld filler plate to fill the two factory turn signal locations making the bumper whole one piece.
2) cut out two holes on the lower side to custom mount two small size yellow fog lights.

Here's a quick photoshop to show an idea on how the front end will look when its all said and done...

 

that looks good! btw, how u do the mod for the lights? the bumpers going to look good!

 

I swear to almighty God that phatmitzu has friking mind reading abilities.......


He has teh exact bumper concept i wanted to do... minus the fog lights......




Lol how'd you wire up the corners? I plan to do my corner lights just like that.

he even has my grille and bumper combo plan down too!



anyway bro, nice!!!

 

LOL @ CinNAMmon...
Do it man, it looks much cleaner one piece.

I didn't do any rewiring. I just made new holes for the factory turn signal sockets into the corner lights.

Nice work! I want to do that bumper fog light mod on my 97 Tacoma. What I want to know is what front lip is that and where can I get one?

 

lmfao!!! sounds like a plan for me!

I'll have to find 4WD bumper and 4runner bottom valance... then i'll one piece it!

maybe i should just one piece my current 2wd bumper lawl

 

Dude, thats badass! I'm liking the lip.

 

wut do u mean new holes? that completely threw me off. i really wana know so i can do all this this next month becuz thats exactly wut i wanted to do with my corners

 

...clean

like what u did with the bumper has a clean look....what offset is that on the sportmax

 

Nice ride! That bumper turned out sweet. Seats look good too!

 

Drill new holes on your parking light housing and put the turn signal bulb socket in it.

zero.

 

I haven't been here for a while. Hey Phat, I did that corner light thing. in the meanwhile, i did several photoshoots with my friends. I didn't get much of a rolling shot, but I was the camera vehicle. I admit that we did held up traffic


here's a few.

 

Really like that last picture!

 

Man, I totally want to go on a run with a bunch of Toyota Minis. That would be sooo tight.

 

Looks hot. CinNAMmon, you roll with a group of tuners? I wish my truck would be able to do that without being the odd "rims" out. I wish I had a 1989 - 1995 2WD sometimes...

 

Thanks for the compliments. Wished I could have a duo pic with Phat. maybe someday. His truck pretty much sets a paved path for my truck. I congratulate him with creativity and actually having funds to getting it where he wants it to be.

In Wichita, Kansas, there are pretty much two local forums i know of here. It's either the ricers and rednecks from WR. Or the actual legit forum, KSA. I hang with KSA much more, i have two KSA stickers on my truck. left door frame and rear right cab pillar.
We took our pics on Friday night. I took a silver Sanford "marker" and wrote some funny stuff on my sidewalls. such as OMG HAI! and ZOMG NO WAI!!


KSA is pretty much 75% Subaru's.... lawl, I love my friend's Legacy, it was the camera car for a bit. We have several VW's, good clean non ricey RSX's and Si Coupes, and several other cars around the place. i kinda stick out with the pickup.

phatmitzu you are the inspiration along with SD_yota for dropping my truck! both your guys trucks look great!
