There are a lot of people that have those items on their VX here on the forums. I think they look good! If you went to the gallery section and did some searching, you will probobally find what your VX would look like.

Well as for the offroad you loose alittle bit of clearance but if you don't do much offroading then they look good. I think the chrome ones even look better though.

Sorry I don't have a pic. I like the chrome nerf bars on white too. Tone took a picture of my Ironman this past weeend. Maybe he can post it so you can get another visual. Congrats on the purchase. You're going to have a great time with it.

thank you everybody. My wife and I are going to get the black ones we think. Already loving the vx can't get enough of driving it. Thank you for telling me you all where confident with purchasing from tone. I like to know I am buying from somebody with credit and a good person. Are there any other stories of sucess buying from Tone??? Just wondering.

personally..in my opinion...the step bars and that light bar are worthless... kick the light bar...it can not take it...offroading in the step bars is a waste...

get rock sliders...and a real functional bar up front.


(no offense for Tone or his products...I have bought from him and would buy from him again too...only the functional and not just pretty mods)


I just believe in functionality and not just looks pretty

I agree... IF you plan on off-roading and rock-crawling, the Safari Bar will bend under certain circumstances. The step bars will do the same.

Of course, if you plan on doing this kind of activity, there are other things you should consider doing to your VX to help it's abilities.

If you plan on staying on the road most of the time, with occasional off-road, not too technical, the Safari Bar should be fine.

yeah it will be on the road more then off hate to say. The only fun I will get into is maybe a little mud. No rocks or real hard off roading :( .

Once you take it off road a little you'll catch the bug and want to go further and further into the dark side and test your VX's abilities!:hat:

Same down here,no rocks unless you buy them. NO heavy duty abuse,outside of the occasional triple digit sprints. There are a few logging roads not far from here. Think the Soobie is much better suited for it.(the more you push the bigger it smiles) Just can't bring my self to bang up this car... just too damn special.
