    Yes. From my experience it’s just as good as OEM.

    I see no reason to pay OEM price.

    I got mine for $308 to include shipping from PrestigeToyota in NY.

    Lou is the Parts Service Department manager who hooked me up!

    I also bought my 2021 Christmas gifts for my Taco from there--bed mat/bed lights/wheel locks.

    @TwinTaco31719

    That's a decent price but like was said, if you wait...maybe you could get it for $70 less?

    EDIT: $300 was an acceptable price on OEM for me.

    Coating seems to be holding up just fine after multiple hits.

    Nice. Hmm I’ll have to think on it honestly. $100-140 difference for OEM

    I don’t know if I would wait to save $40. The way inflation is going and I suspect all this free shipping will end. iMHO

    IMHO it’s a no brainer getting the knock off one, unless you don’t support made in China products.

    I bought an open box new one on Amazon for $315. I'd say it's a good deal

    For sure. It’s still aluminum and it’s pretty tough to get an aluminum skid plate for that price
