Yeah I'm happy to help, probs cheaper if we had a bunch of you blokes all buy together, get them ship to somewhere central, then distribute from there.

Obviously "trust" is a factor, but maybe using paypal or some other method (maybe pay the supplier direct) is a way to do the financial side. California is probably the most logical shipping port, but the rest would have to be up to you guys.

In the mean time, I'll see if I can find a supplier who exports to the US.

Thumbs up Boomer bullbars

These things are so cool.
I can't believe I've never seen them before.
These things would put the "bro trucks" to shame with their rock armor bumpers.

I just don't see how a giant add-on bumper like that is good taste when "tasteful" is typically described as a subtle modification that pleases many people.

Your now implying that I said I had good taste.
"Pleases many people" is also very subjective.
Our trucks will not please many people in down town san fransico, conversely a toyota Prius would be laughed out of town in some rural community's.

Found another video with that same silver dent!


What NBC Steve said was interesting though, I guess that makes sense. Pretty cool there's this same dent in several videos though!
