    I love them. They protect the entire headlight and will direct brush away from my entire front end.

    It was nighttime! and now I'm at work..the drive in this morning was good. It actually didn't lower it at all, we estimated the weight at about 80-85lbs, but it did ride seemingly smoother this morning but that could've been placebo lol

    He'll be happy to hear that. He's just a good dude to work with. Plus he beats the competition on prices. His pricing will go up a bit I'm sure, but for the bumper, paint, install and whatnot for me he charged me $700. You CANNOT beat that price for custom work. Like I said, he'll go up I'm sure so don't hold him to the prices he's charged me lol, but you can bet you'll be close to it and cheaper than competition no doubt.

    Def unique with those head light hoops. I dig it.

    Does your truck have a name? I vote "Matilda"

    Hello Everybody, my name is Dave and I'm in the Huntsville area. I'm not able to get on here as much as I would like, but I do get on here some.
    I am currently working on my 2012 sport and in do so I bought the ome 886 and 887 springs. Really wasn't sure how the 887's would do with a aftermarket bumper, but after 6 months looks like they will be just fine. So I am going to sell the ome 886 springs, they have never been out of box. I figured I would try and sell to one of the local guys on here first, before throwing it up on the buy and sell page. I'm asking 140.00. Thanks

    Another reason I wanted the headlight hoops, I can tell exactly where the side/front of my truck is. This was my view driving in this morning:

    Welcome Dave, from another Dave! I have the OME 885's on mine with a heavy plate bumper and it didn't sag at all.

    Almost went with the 885's to, but ended up going with the 887's hoping to get just a little bit more height in the front.

    Mine is a Recon 10,500lb, waterproof, and comes with synthetic line.

    This is the second Tacoma that I've had a Recon on, and have never had any problems.
