Light bar

Hey guys and gals,
I have been looking at light bars for my 07 pre-runner and I am leaning towards the n-fab bar but I found one and I don't know who makes it.

Thats the link so if anyone knows who makes that bar can you let me know? Also if anyone knows of another bar that looks simular to this that would be great. I know KC does but that's the only one I have found yet that looks some what like it.
Thanks,
Matt

It will. It does not mount to the lower grill area. It wraps around underneath and bolts under the truck near the skid plate. For those that have an aftermarket skid plate, it should work with that as well

I received my randy ellis light bar yesterday, and if your experience is like mine make sure to have some touch up paint on hand. I was dissapointed in the amount of chips and scratches in my brand new bar. It could be protected MUCH better for shipping. Just my observation.

It fits great though so I guess that is most important. It does come into contact on both sides of the bottom of the front valence, but just barely, and you would never see it unless you lay under the truck.

I purchased the Randy Ellis bar for my 04 F250 few years back. I notices there are scratches when it arrived. Thru out the year, the rust has overcome the powdercoating from underneath. With a matter of times, it started to bubble and the rust will appear. I hope the black would be better than the silver coating.

Well it sounds like I should just go with the n-fab bar. Anyone have any problems with that one?
Thanks

I am curious also. What light bar would most people recomend? I was thinking of doing the Randy Ellis in a black finish but now I am concerned about the rust in the future.
