Does anybody has a picture of a pre-runner style bumper on an Xterra? I was looking at AC's but it looks like it may just go over the bumper like a brush guard. I've never been into the real heavy duty huge bumpers like everyone puts on their X's. Any pics or suggestions would be great!

I actually bought the AC one to sue as a base. It does kinda go on the existing metal part(on an 00-01). I took of the bottom plastic part, and I was going to reinforce it and build the rest....butttt.......it never happened, haha.

That's pretty much exactly what I was looking for, thanks! I'm wanting to get/make one like that with sheet metal put up front to protect from rock debri and what not. Probably with something stupid etched in it like my screenname.
I know what you mean about things not happening. When I was wheeling a Yota we went to bob the bed, gonna be real nicely done. We cut the first part and got to lookin at it, then we said screw it, drilled a couple holes in my bed and ziptied my taillights to it. Drove it like that for almost two years. Anyways...
:talk2much:
Any other sweet ideas for a bumper that I don't know about?

NOISH - I want a pre-runner style bumper also. Someone posted a site awhile back that had some pretty sweet bumpers that were similar to these. I think soccerbrace did. I think he bought some sliders from them.
However, they may have only been for yota's.

Yup, that is sweet. Maybe I'll post on the frontier forum and see if anybody claims it.

That's "Houdini's" frontier. That thing is sick! He's a member of my NOAS club. That prerunner is actually a custom job done by a guy in North Carolina if I'm not mistaken. Here's an xterra with a prerunner bar built by the same guy.

Check out Total Chaos' Project Xterra. It has a small custom pre-runner bumper. Most people think it's a skid plate but it's actually a prb. I think they will fab one for around $500. They don't stock them or actually market them but I read somewhere that if you call and talk to them they will fab one up for you.
