My rendition of what an ARB Shorty might look like. I'd also get rid of the grill hoop but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

Front view. Sorry Adam, but it's a good picture for comparison. Your KJ does look great though. I'm just brainstorming.

I don't like the look, but I love the functionality of it.

First, the tires look really bad in that rendition making everything look funny. Second, there would not be any need to cut the fender flares with the ARB Shorty. The Bull Bar, I could live without also.

You wouldn't have to cut the fender flares but you'd want to. They wrap around the stock bumber. If you didn't cut this off the flares would catch and get ripped off shortly.

Very interesting, especially considerin I already have an ARB...hopefully they don't come out with your idea because I like it much better and I'm sure it weighs less, but then that means less mass for knockin doo doo over :D

AHHHHHHH!!!!

MAKE IS STOP!!!!

I haven't even had a chance to drive the KJ more than 50 feet and you're photo chopping it? Ahhh!

That bull bar looks MUCH better painted, BTW. I was never a big fan of it until now.

(you do NOT want to stop short in front of me and my 4,800+ lbs bull bar!)
