Question Bumper Caps, Seat recovering

Anyone know where to get new front bumper end caps for an lx 450? I'd also consider just buying a good (read, affordable) aftermarket off road bumper for front and rear.

Also, I'd like to recover/replace the front seats. Anyone have a source for this?

For a used one, post up over on Mud, might be able to find one close to you.

For an ARB bull bar, Kurt from Cruiser Outfitters has good deals and service.

Kurt with cruiser outfitters is great to work with. So is crew at Sleeoffroad.com for good offroad bumpers.

Ken Hanna -- hannaquality.com makes nice rear bumper too.

For bumper endcaps, try IH8MUD.com -- post in the wanted forum.

How soon do you want the end caps? I plan to replace the front bumper of my wife's LX 450 with something else, soon, but I'm still a couple months away from doing it.

For nice front bumpers, I like the ARB bumper and slee offroad's front bumper. I'd buy either one without hesitation. TJM has a nice one for a lower price, but I don't think it's as stout as the ARB or sleeoffroad bumper.

I have an ARB on mine. Am still deciding on which one to put on the wife's.


For front seat covers check out www.gtcovers.com or www.greatcovers.com. Both links take you to the same company, but the web sites are a little different -- one's supposedly easier to navigate than the other -- I've also heard that the prices are slightly different too. The covers are the same, however. I've seen the cordura version (I think they call it endura).

wet okole makes seat covers out of neoprene (wet suit material). It's nice as well. The fit is a little better on the wet okoles, but if you live in a warm climate, you might find that these trap the heat a little too much for your liking.
