    Nice work Billy. I think with a couple mods i'm really feelin it! Possibly carry the line a little further back on the sides with a miter cut tube to match the flare a bit?? Maybe optional fill plates for the "wings", I know that partly defeats the idea of the hybrid maybe, but I like the tube with fill plate look. Either way I dig it. Looks like a great option for guys looking to get something a bit different! :cheers:

    Can't wait to get my bumpers mounted, work needs to let up so I can get busy on the truck!

    Not to step on your toes but if you plan on making bumpers you might not want to have TRD cut into them, Toyota will come after you for infringement... I have seen it before from them.

    Amazing! I love it. Definitely going to have to consider going this route............ shipping from Cali to Ohio may be a killer.

    Nah.... nothing a magnet license plate can't fix, if I were to go to the dealer. It does have me thinking though, what would happen? hmm...

    The average stealership is dumber then a box of rocks. So I don't think they would even notice and if they did don't think they would care.
