Total Chaos will still make those if you want it. They just don't advertise them. I think they run around $400 to $500 though. TC makes great stuff.

As for custom fab shops, probably won't find many advertised online but if you can find a local off-road club forum that is based near you, the members there will be able to direct you to a custom fab shop that handles off-road vehicles. They are out there but you have to look for them.

drake ~ i already e-mail'd them about the bumper ... they told me that those were just proto types for their project rides and told me that any fab shop should be able to fab one for me. as far as them selling it, they said that they dont ... ill look around out here nd hopefully can find one that would be able to make one for me. thanks though.

Aw man that sucks. Well my bad on the misinformation. I don't understand why we can't get TC to produce more stuff for the xterras. The friggin' owner of TC has one! And yet he devotes 90% of his work to Toyota.

Well bro, good luck on the search and try looking into the local clubs. I'm almost positive that if they don't know of a custom fab shop, they know somebody who does it as a hobby out of their garage. And in some cases like with Richard and WhiteRockFab, they do better work than the guys with a full blown shop because they have more respect and more pride in the work they do.

talk to matt at white rock fabrication, whiterockfab@yahoo.com

shipping out to california might be a little costly, but his work is fantastic and he can do whatever you want

Do you have more images? I mean that's a good frontal but doesn't really help with trying to figure out how they got on there etc.

So you basically want a skid plate mounted on your stock bumper?

i wanna say its mounted where the stock skid was at and also to the front bumper reinforcement bar that runs across (not exactly sure just guesstimating) but thats what it looks like to me.

where in oc you located at, im near the LB town center off the 605 maybe we could meet??
