    hi everyone,

    My name is Zee of Z designz. My company designs and prototypes vehicles for Toyota corp. I've just completed a production fender flair kit as well as a brush guard for the new Tacoma. The pictures I've attached are the finished product of the parts I've built. I'm now offering for these parts for the new Tacoma. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you

    I never even noticed the fender flares... I was so distracted by the wrap and red/yellow graphics. The graphics image with the silver truck shows off the lines of the products better. I'd like to see the flares on a single color truck.

    On production kits, the flairs offset around the fuel door. Fender flairs snap in to OEM mounting surface.

    Hmmm looks interesting. Do you have a side shot of the brush bar to see how far they stick out being installed on the front two hitch? I couldn't find a website where I can see more products?

    Also what kind of tubing that is being utilized for the front brush bars?

    Thanks.

    The flairs look pretty awesome! Will you color match them? I'd like black or white on mine.

    Very interested in the brush guard and the flairs. Do you have any more photos of them installed on the truck and was there a lift installed on the truck or did the new flairs allow the larger tires?

    Man this model is going to get some much cool looking stuff! #sorry2ndgen

    I would like the to see the bush guard to be more rounded like the computer generated image. The front is long / sticks out enough as it is so I would be nice if the guard sat fairly flush to the front.

    Side view of guard. It bolts to the two posts that come out next to the tow hooks. Please visit Instagram acct: @zeedesignz

    Fender flairs are being manufactured now. Brush guards are already built in house and ready to ship. They are constructed out of .125 wall mild steel and precision TIG welded. Offered both with and without 20" LED bar.

    $899 seems steep for a tube brush guard. Just in perspective, full plate bumpers are normally in that price range. And I'm sure you are aware of the competition out there who makes the comparible product for the 2nd gen for about half this price. Not sure if they plan to do a 3rd gen rendition or not.

    Not trying to be an ass but just putting things into perspective. I don't have a 3rd gen but those fenders are pretty cool.
