front bumper cant decide

allpro or trail gear rock defense?

havent seen much pics of 2nd gens with the rock defense anybody gottem? only shitty thing I see is that it dont got pockets to mount stock fog lights as where the allpro does. trail gear looks more protective and tougher looking compared to allpro with a more sleek look

 

@Pelfreybilt should be high on your list!

 

Stock fogs don't fit an Allpro anyways unless you mod something yourself or I think 4xinovations makes a bracket. At least they don't fit the older style. I agree with above, There's better options. Found mine on Craigslist for cheep though.

 

A bunch of bumpers in the bumper thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/bumpers-2nd-gens-only.164975/

Some of those vendors are no longer in business but there are still plenty to choose from. Scroll down past the rear bumpers and you'll see the hybrid tube/plate front bumpers too.

 

I decided to go with @Pelfreybilt ... they are local and there are just too many positive threads/posts about their customer service & quality in the forums and were very responsive to my emails.

 

how much they charge for the one you got?

 

Mine is a couple years old so prices are up some. From what I can tell from the website your looking at around $1200 for one like mine...center hoop and powdercoat.

 

will i have to get new fog lights? i see the circle cutouts on the bumper maybe secure the stocks some creative way?

 

Stock fogs are going to be tricky because there are no bolts to hook up to the mount that comes with the bumper. You would be better off just selling your fogs and buy some Rigids. You can wire them into the stock fog light wiring without cutting any wires.
