Post by Huxli »

I have been trolling for ideas and advice for my hilux for some time now and finally have something to share.

Have a look the bumpers from Rhino4x4, best looking bumpers on the market.

That is the best looking bumber period. Have you got any idea about prices yet. I checked on the website, their rear replacement bumper is just as good looking.

4x4 is like an adiction. Just when you thought you are happy, someone puts up a post like this :slap:

I cannot see what thickness of steel they use for the brackets and bumper, they only say the thickness of the Alu bash plate. Or am I just not focusing today?

Spoke to ewert yesterday and he only had silver hilux bumpers left in this shipment. Next shipment will be more expensive due to the exchange rate.

The bumper is as solid as any other but looks 100x better. Some really clever design work has gone into this. The bumper is split in three parts and fitted and aligned seperately but once tightended it is as solid a brick outhouse. Available in most colors and choice of chrome, color coded or black centres. Weighs around 50kg.
The rear bumper has an integrated tow ball, properly reinforced and looks great. Next on the wishlist.

The shop is great, sit on a couch and watch some dvds whilst they fit or spend time chatting to ewert about overlanding trips.

Let me know what else you want to know or give Ewert a call at rhino 4x4
