Vanguard Off-Road Accessories

Installation wasn't easy in the beginning but once you got in one of those bolts and nuts tighten then in became a breeze in end and it looks awesome. Love it.

This item never seems in stock and I don't know why. I am very disappointed in the quality and the attention to detail. Has bad powder coating. It was damaged and I believe it occurred at the factory and whoever was performing quality control either didn't care or has been instructed to ignore problems. There was a gouge in the front portion that was obviously done at the factory. It was wrapped with multiple layers of padding and no damage to padding or the box it arrived in. The light bar provided doesn't fit in the light bar. It is designed to fit a side mount bar that is 17 1/2 inch wide. I received a 20 inch bar that is bottom mount. The light provided and the style of light is not correct and impossible to install. Has to have a side mount light bar. There are 2 holes in the guard above the rectangle opening this style bar would mount also. I would be unable to use both the rectangle opening and the holes if I chose to go overkill with lights because they would interfere with each other. I am unable to find a light bar that will fit in the guard. The picture instruction sheet is incorrect for a 4-runner (Limited) but anyone with mechanical skills should be able to figure out how to mount it. At this point I regret buying this. It is a big paper weight at the current time. Too embarrassing to keep on the vehicle with big rectangle opening without a light and the damage on the front portion. Overall I would not be able to recommend this product (or any Vanguard product) based on my experience with their product. Unfortunately I ordered this several months ago when I received a message it was in stock and waited to open the box until now to find all this out. It would not have changed my views on the product and experience but at least then I could have maybe returned it and only been out shipping instead of 5 bills for something of this quality I will not be using. I attached pictures.
