Grill guard suggestions?

New White off road Tacoma in va.. I stumbled across your site and have been looking through it for a while now. I have never really been a forum fan. But I am going to give it a shot since I've learned some interesting stuff and seen some good looking trucks.

First things first I want to get a grill guard to protect the front end of my new toy. Anyone have any tried and true products they would reccomend?


My truck is below.

 

I don't have any recommendations for you, but welcome to the forum and congrats on the new truck...very nice!

 

Running a bull bar is worse than not running a bull bar

also, @FlaccidMass what the shit is that?

 

Why do you say that. I am new so bare with me.

And what is what?

 

you name, bro....

bull bars are ugly and when you crash into something they often bend back and ruin your front end

 

Oh the name.. Haha

I live in the city and don't want people fucking it up when they park. Also, going through light brush on hunting trails, I would rather it be hitting a guard rather than my grill.

 

these are the kind that hurt the front end and look terrible...

 

and then there is this, which I don't think was ever produced for sale after SEMA

I like these.

 

Checkout ranchhand.com I think their grill guard looks great on the new Tacomas.

 

I do like that one with the LED light bar on it. Was thinking about one of those too.
Thanks for all the suggestions and pictures.

 

Do you know if anything needs to be cut for this bumper? I kind of like this one.

 

Mine is on order ... supposed to be here soon ... so I can't say from first hand knowledge yet, but their instructions indicate that a little light trimming of the inner fender liner is all that is required.

Here are the instructions if you want to take a look:

Thanks for the info, it doesn't look bad at all.

 

So funny, I did a double take. I normally just lurk but this is hilarious.

Anyway I'm surprised no one mentioned fab fours. They really stepped it up with the Tacoma. The vengeance looks good. The store seems to have their whole line up and ships, I would just browse through. http://www.builtfortrucks.com/toyota-tacoma/
