    I’ve got a 2019 TRD OR and have a Southern Style Offroad Slimline Hybrid front bumper with the high clearance kit. Wanting to put a receiver hitch on the front for a rack/fishing rod holder. My only concern is the hitch sticking out like a sore thumb under the bumper. Anybody ever done this? If so post pictures! TIA

    i added a front receiver to a BAMF bumper and it's unnoticeable on the vehicle unless you're looking for it

    I have a stock bumper with a Mobtown steel skid. I put a Curt receiver on it also, and when not using the receiver I keep a receiver skid step plate on it. Works well for not digging in when hitting steep sided ruts and stuff and helps for better footing when doing engine maintenance too!
