    Got rear ended and wanted to see what the options are

    Does anyone know of steel bumpers that retain BSM + sonar? Apogee, victory 4x4, and 4wp are the only options I can think of.
    If not BSM, looking at something like RCI's or C4's bumper that retains sonar at least. I like the hidden hitch. Don't seem to see much by way of having both sonar and a swingout though
    Lastly, anyone know of bumpers that have the sonar and a swingout? Seems like the only options I see are the victory 4x4 and 4wp bumper with swingouts but not sure if they'll function with them

    This thread will be helpful if you decide to stay with OEM parts or getting the OEM bumper off to go aftermarket. Post #22 has a good write-up and Post #5 has an exploded view of parts.

    I’m back to stock after 4WP BSM compliant advertised that didn’t work. A lot of hastle having Toyota recalibrate BSM. 4WP tried two separate bumpers. Never worked, got the BSM disabled light from day 1
