    How much work did that eBay bumper entail? I would love to get a beefier front bumper but cannot justify the cost. Though I do have my eye on a particular brand lol.

    It was $599 shipped, that was the total. Fitment was better than I imagined, it’s holding up well and much much stronger than stock!

    If you come across a cheap Toyota with a 3.4 5vz and a 5 speed manual for sale let me know. I don't care if it's 2wd.or 4wd. T100, Tacoma, or 4Runner. Just not a Tundra. I want a daily that's reliable and cheaper on gas but still fun to drive. Eventually I can supercharge and straight pipe it haha

    Well, there has been plenty of wheeling and that has taken off any coatings i had on the bumpers and sliders. Iver refinished the skids a few times but its time to get all those spots on the other armor bits. I went to the coast and we got mega sea spray and it clearly shows me where I need to refinish now :)

    That's pretty good. Would love to see a few more pics of it. I've been drooling over ATH bumpers personally lol.

    I sure will! I have a customer with a 1st gen taco that’s absolutely immaculate that she’s owned since it was new and I keep waiting for her to sell it but it’s auto.

    Been a while since I updated anything, roof light bar is gone due to the ridiculous noise I just couldn’t eliminate. This is how she currently sits. I had the BAMF behind the grill light bar but the grill eliminated 50% of the light output so I moved it back to the bumper and ditched the bolt on hoop. Also bought a grizzly 450 4x4 that’s currently fully armored with ricochet offroad armor. Will post pics if y’all wanna see. I’ve been so damn busy lately with projects and work I’m physically and mentally exhausted lol. Also will have another update later today, waiting on a couple things to show up then I’ll post pics:thumbsup:
