    Has anyone installed a Fab Fours Vengeance or Premium front bumper? If so, can you post some pics, and comment on the install? Both these bumpers are some of the best looking I've seen.

    Anyone know how much the ARB bumper weighs? Will there be any issues with the front end sagging a little due to weight? Stock TRD OR?

    From what I've heard the ARB is pretty heavy

    Roger that. I'll look in the armor section. It looks beefy.

    Yeah, I'd be interested in an ARB (no winch). Curious about weight, and is it installed pretty sturdy?

    I can't read a single post in this thread. It might be full of useful information and cool photos, but I can't get past the OP's GIF in the signature line...:rofl::duel::D:bowdown:

    It's actually pretty smooth looking in person. That was some nice crisp reflections there.

    Does this replace the factory skid plate? I have a TRD Pro with the aluminum skid plate.

    Installed the ARB last month, the nose is about 3/8" lower. Also it's sturdy.
    Haven't installed a winch yet, probably happen next year.
