    Cable lock it to a tree in the front yard with a 4 sale sign.
    So many 4runners on the road, someone is bound to see it and want it

    Hey OP I'm on the fence about this, what's the verdict yay or nay?
    I have it saved in my cart wondering if its worth getting over OEM.
    I go off-roading almost every other weekend but nothing too crazy so this would be more of a cosmetic upgrade and a just in case type of thing.

    No problem! There was no reviews when I bought it, now there are a bunch of decent reviews too (including mine).

    I had one for a brief amount of time and liked it! Here’s a side by side with OEM

    Yeah weight is almost identical. Quality is close but definitely OEM is nicer. Little different shade of color as you can see. The OEM is lighter silver. Both mount up the same and serve the same purpose

    Nice alternative if you want to do some custom coating vs ruining an OEM finish. Thanks for sharing!

    Quality wasn't bad.. I chose the knock off cause I was gonna paint it black anyways. Plus grabbed the trd decal off of eBay. I like the black look better

    Nice skid plate. I have the same one. Got it off Ebay though. Can't remember if I even looked for it on Amazon. Has worked well on my SR.

    I just ordered one based on this thread. I reached out to the seller (Lostar) and asked for a copy of their installation manual first. They responded with a copy in about 20 minutes. The manual (see attached) does talk about the bolts being already attached to the skid plate (which I understand isn't true), but it does show which length bolts go in which holes. So, I am cautiously optimistic about this endeavor...
