Outer Limits 4x4 Board

am looking at importing some f/glass guards from the States, want to know if any there is any interest in them.

am going to get a set for the LN61 Surf i am knocking around in at the moment, to see what the fit and quality is like.

3 types available are:

84 - 88 hilux/4 runner - approx 3'' flared out, 4'' opened up. this one has a round opening not square like the original gaurd.

89 - 97 hilux - approx 2" flared out, 2'' opened out.

89 - 97 hilux - approx 3" flared out, 2-3'' opened out, the top is flat like the bonnet and opens to a big bulge opening

these apparantly fit straight on and are made of a quality racing f/glass.
am trying to nail down a price at the moment. i imagine they will be around $300 - $350 each, not sure at this stage.

get some pics ASAP because i have smashed a few of mine and wouldn't mind replacing them with bigger ones

dreamer!

would be interested in them as well, as i think there is a market for them, although the imported ones would have to be cheaper than $300-350 EACH. i got some in from Carryboy (imported from Thailand) and according to them, they were EXACTLY the same as the ones fitted by Toyota factory. complete rubbish. made from plastic, thin as chips, and only attached from inside the guard, so was impossible to keep the gap between flare and fender closed. these sold for $480 a set of 4. TJM also have some available, but by the time they join the rear (same as dual cab hilux) flare, colour code them, they sell for $1200 for 4. rip off.

would be good to see a pic of them if you have them.

Yeah I'd definately be interested in the 2" flared ones, but like already said, price would obviously play a large part.

I got a set of replacement guards from repco for a 2nd generation. These are steel and look exactly the same as stock. You will have to paint them though.

I am definately interested - would like to see a pic though first and the price would want to be cheaper than that.

Have they a web site we can visit?

Would possibly be interested in a pair of the last type- 89 - 91 lux 3" flared, 2- 3" opened up.

we are talking complete front guards here, not pos flares

i might be interested in a set depends on price

ahhh, if u guys are talking actual body panels, then im off the track, i was talking about the plastic flares around the wheel arches!

Im assuming these are the 2nd gen type you are talking.

Like this one for a 60# hilux

this is for 89 - 97 models

still working on the prices

yeah interested in the fronts and rears for style side SC 94 lux, in white Pls pm when you have details!

Hey Guys. There is a company here in NZ that does some figlass parts. I found out about stuff for my first gen hilux so I dont know what is available for your rigs. Front gaurds are 180 each bonnet (without bracing) 200. these are in nz$ and dont include gst (but you would not pay nz gst anyway) I cant remember the company name, I think it is prosell. The email address is stevewhitton@xtra.co.nz . This crowd do quite alot of stuff including tj tubs and even 40series cabs. Hope this is helpful.

UZJ40 See if you can get 1st gen 2'' flared guards while your at it

if they are like the one in the pics i want them cos my lux is the same as the one in the pic pm when u have them and the price thanx

Any news?

Some working pics of the 89 - 97 models would be nice.

Josh.

Waaaay back from page 7- is there still any interest for these?

yeah depending on price and any chance of the 89 - 97 model pics?

Waiting for some to come in, then i can get them fitted to make sure the fit and finish is good, and i will also have the landed cost of them.
have a 84 -88 model to fit them on, need a 89 - 96 model to trial fit them on, anyone in Western Sydney interested?

pic me pic me

Id be happy to trial some for you may take a little while to properly test them though

UZJ40.. are the flares for hte 60# Hilux's the ones in the picture of the white xtracab... if so what sort of retail are they looking at, they look great!

dont waste your time, i have a set and they cost me $1500 and then another $800 to make the moulds was spent by ruff. everyone piped up and said they wanted them yet when it came down to it no one wanted them. i think we sold maybe 2 sets.


I have a sey of the origional AOR ones from the stated at home if anyone is interested in them. red in colour.
