Got the TraxRax back from the Powdercoaters last night. I opted to go black to tie in with the standard colour of a Rhino bar, but I d0 like the dark Hammertone finish which I feel maybe less prone to scratching. Heres a couple of pics of the final product. On LFaR's suggestion, I have pre drilled a couple of holes for mounting kit onto the rear of the bracket (quickfists etc...)
Wait no longer...A quote from the MAXTRAX website on the Arctic Blue "Limited Edition". Note the "Not in Hot Climates bit"
"MAXTRAX Arctic Blue have been especially developed to work in extreme cold climates down to -60C. NOT IN HOT CLIMATES such as the Australian Outback."

I'm a fan of the blue also. Despite the abilityb to handle lower temps I think they also do the Aussie temps as well. I await to be corrected?

[QUOTE=Madkore;345251]I would have thought Chuck doesn't need them - he would just lay in the mud and have the vehicle drive on him, with his abs as traction.
On a side note, I just checked the Maxtrax website and the camo ones retail for $499 a set - $200 more than the orange ones! Good on Maxtrax for contributing these.

I hear you, but I am not doubting Chuck. Obviously they are bad ass if he wants them.
I agree, Brad from MaxTrax has really gone above and beyond. We would have been happy for 1 set of "in-your-face" orange, but his generousity like the generousity of all the sponsors has been amazing.
I was thinking it must be because of my rugged good looks and tuff rig which makes sense of course, but then I realised, he hasn't met me nor seen my beast of a Prado, so I guess its the fact that these guys appreciate PradoPoint and its members. Naturally we should show our appreciation in return. Iv'e started by sending and autographed picture of me and my rig, oh and spending a sh&t load with them because I want quality products
mlc
(I didn't really send a pic, mainly because I don't have any )

Whilst I was there, I never knew all the different ones they produce. I reckon the blue ones look pretty good, but obviously not suitable for Australian conditions (Blue ones are rated for conditions up to -60C).
Madkore, I know most will find this hard to believe but, Chuck Norris just rang me. He wants a set of these bad boys! That proves they are DAMM TUFF and good enough for a man's man! Who would have thought Chucky would need MAXTRAX!!!!!!!!
