    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    Looks like they build it around the stock bumper or part of it to minimize cutting. I feel you need to chop up the bumper to design a good looking bumper.

    It's just a modern 2nd Gen on the road. I found the engine fine after a few minutes and the overall drive has improved. Road noise is pretty much gone now. Not something that I would ditch a 2nd Gen for unless you needed a new truck. It's pretty much what I figured it was.

    All my predictions came true.....It would look like a big ugly tundra bumper if cutting isn't involved.

    This is the best looking stocker yet. Mainly because it blends well. :blahblah:

    I think this gen will look killer with long travel....tube bumpers...

    May even look ok with a bit of a "bro lean". And I really hate admitting that. But the shape of the fenders and the hood....I could see like, an old fighter plane scheme. The headlights resemble the shark mouth that was painted on the planes...I could see it working. go ahead...flame on. I still don't really like the 3rd gen.

    ehh my only complaint with the 3rd gen was the damn bottom bumper sticking out half a foot, this plate bumper solves it, I am in love

    I agree. Love this bumper. Though it may need to be extended for those that want hoops.

    Looks great, I need to do this on my OR. Where did you purchase from? Care to share what you paid for the parts?

    Thanks

    Saw my first 3rd gen in person yesterday. MGM TRD OR. As others have said, I thought it looked a hell of a lot better in person and was much more similar to a 2nd gen than I had anticipated. I actually couldn't tell it was a 3rd gen at first. As it passed, I did notice the front end was awkwardly long. Reminded me of Quick Draw McGraw...

    I wasn't specifically looking for one, but there were no other DCLB SR5 4x4's to be found (in my search). I know folks gripe about the price increase for what you get with the Texas Edition, but I like it.
