Hey also is the factory rear bar colour coded or did you have it done?, Think looks better than the chrome and style of bar on my 2010 model.

i do like the new 11, the only thing that could do with a makeover is the sports bar
farting is alot like jxxxxxg off. both provide instant gratification, but neither is a long term solution to the actual problem......................

Looks awsome mate
I like the look of a Hilux with all the factory bumpers and rims,,,,,But with a set of mud tyres and some lift...

................Toyota release a offroad pack and sell them lifted with m/t's straight off the show room floor.

How did you come across the rear bar.....is it a TRD bar you have bought after buying the ute or is that part of the face lift change..........
******If you can ignore it its not a real problem******

No it's the 3 inch kit but the front is on the lowest setting until I work out which bar we are going to fit.

It is a genuine TRD bar supplied in the correct colour. Mainly did it to improve the styling but a big plus is it also dramatically improves departure angle over the stock bar

Yeh mick clean sport truck luck is what I wanted to achieve which is why I am really torn about putting a bar on it. If anything I would fit a colour coded ARB Sahara bar (no loop) on it. But I'm just not sure. Any ideas appreciated

Is a good idea to run the lowest setting untill you add weight. I run Cals 3" lift also and he advised me even though i already running an ARB Delux Bar to leave on the lowest setting until i add a winch or brush bars as the ride would be to firm on the highest setting.. Just my 2 cents worth.
