Tubular bumpers

[Nethater2]

Does anyone know were I can buy a new set of front and rear tubular bumpers for my VehiCross, if they exist?

Here's some threads with others looking for that part too and their results. Don't know if it's still available from Isuzu, but call Merlin and ask. Isuzu part number is 89714 35345

Are you talking about the tubular bumpers behind the cladding, as referenced by VX Kat above, or are you looking for some after market bumpers?

I think you can still get the stock bumper from Merlin, but it's like $300-$350. I spoke to a local 4x4 shop and the said that they could bend one up for me for +/-$250. Unfortunately there are no after market tubular bumpers made for us. You would have to have them custom made.

Thank you, I want front and rear bars (like on jeeps) to fit over the OEM bumpers.

I can't recall any pre-made ones ever being available.
These two owners did a front exoskeleton bumper.

And "Marlin" took on and fabricated a front metal bumper in this thread:
