Which bumper would you run?

[geoffmt]

Go for what you like. I have hit a dozen or more deer and a turkey(pictured) and zero damage to anything really. I have some teeth marks in the skid plate that I haven’t sanded out all the way but nothing damaged up front. I did get t-boned by stupid deer 2 times in the side in work trucks and those were the only things that damaged anything.
Go for what style fits your wants and needs as it’s your truck and should make you happy

Nothing like that exists for the land cruiser that isn't ugly as sin.

You know, people keep saying deer impact.

25 years behind the wheel. Living in deer ridden areas. I've never hit one.

And you just tripled your chances in the foreseeable future with this comment

Wouldn't be the first time I've commented that I've never hit a deer. Just lucky i suppose.

I prefer Option A. It provide more front end protection, and looks better.

I needed a bumper because I smashed into a van.

I pulled the trigger on a. Plus a winch, some lights and a few winch bits. $4200 shipped.

Holy shit. What's the truck worth?
How bad did the van look?

No other damage on your end? Post a photo after the bumper is installed.

My land cruiser? 25-30k

It's imported. Diesel. Low mileage. And an 80 series land cruiser which is a high dollar rig in the right shape.

The crash was minor but it ruined the bumper and an OEM one is almost impossible to find.

Mine was hand built by a fabricator, with powdercoat and lights it was about $1500 20 years ago. He took the truck for three days hand built and marked it up. Put the stock bumper back on welded everything up and send it off to powdercoat

I had intended that for the summer. But I wrecked my land cruiser and the fab shop can't help me right now. So this is my option.

I bought a bumper 3 days ago....

 

[CobraBob]

That wasn't a cheap bumper buy by any means. Excellent choice, though! I love your Land Cruiser!

Finally got the bumper. There 12 week timeline turned into 22.

The first picture is factory lighting
The second is with the lighting I added to the bumper.
