nutshellml Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Unfortunately, I have to put on a Bull Bar and Rear Bumper Guard on my 07 GX470. Can anyone recommend any good manufacturers? I see some on eBay but not sure of the quality. Any specifics I should look out for?? Thanks all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxstewart Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I purchased front and rear guards manufactured by WAAG. Front Runner (P/N 18368 - about $400) and rear bumper (P/N 16799 - about $275) are quality products, and provide protection without a steroidal appearance. WAAG may not show these P/Ns as fitting GX's later than 2005, but only because they haven't confirmed the fit. Both installed on my 2008 without any problems. One exception is if you have a bumper hitch installed, you will need slightly longer bolts that those provided with the rear bumper. The WAAG rear bumper, towing hitch, and tow hook all share the same 2 mounting bolts on one side, and a 50mm long bolt is required to reach through all 3. Be sure to use a grade 8 bolt, as softer fasteners aren't adequate for towing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cduluk Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 What is your need for them? If it's to protect the bumper from minor hits in parallel parking situations, i'd avoid the tiny A-Bars (like the one i've got on my Rx400h) because they're held on at only a few points and probably won't protect much. If you get the wrap-around type it might be a little better with protection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
