    I was told on here that you'll get whiplash if you have steel bumpers. That's why Toyota blessed us with the awesome, safe Tupperware bumpers we have.

    So don't do it, you'll shoot your eye out get whiplash kid!

    Will this interfere with the TRD Pro skid plate?
    This could be a deal breaker.

    Well if I can get in on this group buy, I'll feel much safer. As far as pedestrian safety....I'm sure they'll be fine

    Just glue some rubber foam cushions to the front for the pedestrians! They’ll be fine.
