Yeah I noticed the difference in the gear changes as well. The exhaust may only be minimal gains however lots of little gains all add up. So does the price of them unfortunately.

Custom snorkel fitted.
Big thanks to Mex's Garage in Brisbane for designing and fabrication the custom end cap.
Also a thanks to Fabulous Fabrication for making the snorkel and agreeing to fit the custom end cap and not their own cap.

Thanks Gurilla. I picked up a cheap Summit bar from gumtree and I'm in the process of modifying it to be custom. I don't really like having "off the shelf" things.Comment

I picked up a cheap ARB summit bar from gumtree ($500, bargain), however had no crash cans or fittings. I decided to give it an overhaul. A mate sandblasted and powder coated it for me, then I purchased the fitting kit from ARB with all new everything.
$1750 all up and now I know the powder coat was done properly. Colour is slightly off, however I am having thoughts of doing all after market accessories in this colour for something different. After all using straight black for everything works for a lot of people. Fitted it myself to keep costs down. With a few curse words along the way.

Ahaha nice !
what should I say you need next then ?
bargain mate !! Color isn’t bad ! I’ve seen a lot of 100 series and 70 series with that silver/greyish color for bull bars looks nice, but the 70s do have silver wheel archers
I still have about 2k left to pay on my bull bar and snorkel
looks good though mate ! I also follow a prado same color as yours and his Blacked out his grill etc too looks awesome !Comment

Thanks for the nice comments lads.
Gurilla, that one you follow does look nice. I like the factory front bumper a lot however a bullbar is just a must have. I don't want to get mistaken for a mall crawler
He is a couple of more photos in the light of day. The matt finish of the bar is more prominent.
The more I see it, the more I like the difference. Something a little different.Comment
