    The official stock count is 7 TRD skids. 3 with rhinoliner applied and 4 bare. They are ready for shipment the next day in most cases, as long as I dont have to stay at work late. The bare TRD plate is 190 + 50 for shipping. Add 45 for rhinoliner. Shoot me a pm with any questions!

    Subscribing. If I get the truck I have on order I will definitely be ordering one of the TRD w/rhinoliner!

    I was trying to do it for just cost. But after shipping a couple I realized it would be a better idea to invest in some more proper packaging, this increased the shipping and material costs. Sorry for any inconvenience, but I just need to cover my costs!

    Here are some pics of what I have left. I currently have 1 Rhino Lined plate and 4 Unfinished plates in stock. I have all the shipping supplies and hardware in stock and ready for quick shipment.

    The first batch was a bit slower to ship than anticipated but I have worked out all of the problems for future batches. I also plan on keeping some in stock for 1-2 day ship times.

    Please shoot me a pm with any questions or interest.

    These are pics that I took today.

    Those look badass! I'm gonna have to pick one time next batch around. Are these the exact same size as the stock or do these offer more coverage and how do they compare to the stock one as far as strength and thickness. I only ask cause I was curious if there wasn't any difference could you cut the TRD logo into a stock one if I sent it to you?

    They offer a little more coverage than stock. The thickness and strength can't even be compared to stock. They're made of 3/16" steel...the stock plate is more like tin foil.

    I too would like to see one of the rhino lined ones installed from several feet away from the truck - to see the whole front end etc.

    I am wanting one more for looks than functionality (mine will rarely, if ever go offroad) and I like the look of the OEM one, but I really like the rhino look better, but for $100 more, I'm not sure I can justify it.

    Thanks in advance.

    CJH posted some mounted pics earlier in the thread. Is that what you're looking for?
