    - side step bars are 3 inch also, polished checker plate step, has 3 fixings for strength
    - rear step bar, also has checker plate step, also 3 inch

    These bars I had custom made locally here in Brisbane Australia, more consistent with what Aussies put on their cars we call em bull or 'roo bars...how much ...these were comparable in cost to those that Tone offers...and short of importing his from the US, I found a local guy here who wasn't scared of the VX..and after crawling under it said ..''its pretty much Rodeo under there..so pick the bar type you want..etc etc"..these guys generally only do the polished alloy or plain black..

    DDU,
    Very nice!, she scrubs up real good. Like the looks of those bars big time.
    I've been toying with the idea of a reciever hitch, just so I could put a step bar on.(yes, the ability to tow would also be nice)
    Keep up the good work, Ldub

    thanks all for the comments, I just got in after driving it in traffic, and it certainly gets the looks and the WTFs !!

    That looks really sharp! So, the side nerf bars are from a Rodeo? What had to be done to modify them to fit the VX? I have been looking around for a nice fat set like that.
