I was always going the ARB this time, but I was like you, saw this and just could not go past it. I really hate the plastic infills on the ARB As well and TJM was about $500 cheaper.2012 D4D GXL Auto - Graphite with some TJM enhancement.

Originally posted by The Alberto View PostYeah mate, colour coded. Never really thought about leaving it black, I reckon it would be hard to beat the look of it coloured.

Did you take it off or did TJM just not supply it? I have the T13 bar but in black and it had the cover. The bar was on the Prado when I bought it so not sure if that was an optional extra.
Gave it a tub last Wednesday and just 12 months old and 60,000 km quite a few chips and wear marks and maring on the wings where the bumper infills contact when flexed - does lots of hi speed service tracks.

It has taken a few days but I finally got around to a couple of quick shots of the Blue storm colour coded T3 bar on my 150. It is still pouring with rain so these shots will have to do until I get some others to replace them.
I will update later... After all the animals have been collected 2 by 2...
Something to note in my normal driving position I can just see the top of the polished loop. This gives me a good idea where the front is. One of the big differences between the 120 and the 150 before the bar was fitted was that I had no idea if the front was 6mm or 600mm from anything in front. I know why the forward parking sensors are so popular now.Last edited by mjrandom; 25-02-2013, 12:27 PM.My 150 build - http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?27423-A-Random-approach-to-a-Bluestorm-150-GXL-D4D-automatic

Very Nice! Gotta love the look of the T3 bars. Did you ask for the LED park lights or did they just come that way?
Good luck with the ark.2012 D4D GXL Auto - Graphite with some TJM enhancement.

The rig is looking good MJ, I do like the T3 bar.

I like to think of the T3 as the smart-choice-bar. The LEDs were added before fitting. Have to thank Brains for reminding me about these. I would have done them in 6 months when the first bulb died.
Actually if it was up to me I would have gone black ARB deluxe winch bar with black backlighting and black highlights. However the World Manager said no. And it is hers. Mostly.My 150 build - http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?27423-A-Random-approach-to-a-Bluestorm-150-GXL-D4D-automatic
