    For people that use their truck as a truck and want something even stronger than the flimsy plastic skin on the tailgate but still retain a fairly stock look, here is your solution, the Mobtown Offroad Tailgate Reinforcement Plate.

    The plate is made from 14 gauge CNC laser cut steel, then powder coated in textured black. This skin has embossed reinforcement ribs for added strength across the tailgate. You simply unbolt the OEM plastic skin and tailgate cap, slide this in place under the tailgate cap and bolt back down using the factory hardware. The skin does fit under the factory plastic skin if you want to continue to use that but get added strength. (Minor trimming required on plastic skin)

    You also have the option to replace the cheap plastic clips in the tailgate with steel inserts and hardware, minor drilling required.

    Part is in stock and ships within 5 business days.

    I might be looking for one of these.... Toyota is fixing a couple of broken tabs in my tailgate right now that put an outward facing crease in the gate. Now that it will be fixed I'm looking at how to prevent it from happening again lol.

    Any details on what kind of trimming is needed on the plastic?

    Thank you for placing this in the 2nd Gen Tacoma Marketplace. Makes it easier to find, and gives more visibility than just in the vendor section.

    Your other excellent products should also be placed in this section.

    Had another member make a pretty sweet suggestion. Going to see what I can do to appease it so stay tuned. Meanwhile, we still have over 20 of these in stock and ready to ship.

    I completely understand that and understand basic entrepreneurial principles, to be fancy, but speaking for myself if I had a vendor tell me right now this/ these companies are running a sale and I can save a few bucks that'd be fantastic. if within your relationship with them you get paid the same, and you throw us a bone, in my eyes you create a loyal customer base, build trust and get great word of mouth advertising which is invaluable. Just sayin. Sorry I'm stressed out lol

    I don't think he was saying the price difference caused the stress... could be wrong though

    Yeah why would 5% stress me out. I thought we were on here to collectively pool our know and resources to know and the the most out of our vehicles. I probably could've worded that slightly different to get my point across but if it was cheaper somewhere else I figured you guys would want to know

    People look through magazines to save 10 cents on canned peas from a handcut coupon.... pretty sure the stress is worth it to most people for even minute savings.

    This was very misunderstood. I didn't know they were running a sale, they don't tell us when they do. I didn't know until the link was posted in this forum. So, I stated what the deal was to let people know the details. Please, shop the best deals, there is nothing wrong with it. Just to follow up, our Black Friday sale will be 25% off EVERYTHING we make.
