    Not being a dick, I just ordered my plate bumper from AP, thought I had scoured the entire internet to find all plate bumpers for our truck

    They're not half bad for tube bumpers. I prefer the plated look though.

    I liked the tube bumper that RAD built up. I think KR Fab made the tube part and he cut up a stock bumper to fill in the gab between the tube and under the headlights/grille area. I just don't like how tube bumpers just leave everything open, just a looks thing. This is coming from someone who likes the ARB bumpers though so obviously a difference of opinion.

    haa dude, i hate the look of LT trucks, especially the retarded bumpers. i actually think the bumpers ruin the looks of most of those guys' trucks. i like the hybrids i guess you could call them. brute force fab and ATO make nice hybrids, All-pro used to have a nice one. TG's are pretty nice, and wont break the bank, thats always a plus. more $$$ for other activities! for the record, RJ has the nicest LT truck ive yet to see... i actually like the looks of his.

    I agree with you there, the LT bumpers just don't appeal to me at all. That one guys though looked nice in my opinion. I don't know why All-Pro stopped making their hybrid, I thought it was the best looking of the bunch! As far as cost goes, you really can't go wrong with TG for a function over form approach. And if you like the looks also, there's really no down side. They'll even match your sliders!

    I really like the ATO hybrid, http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/armor-tech-offroad/264550-got-my-new-ato-hybrid-bumper-d.html

    I wouldn't want one though, i like the plate bumpers with a more basic shape like relentless and all pro.

    I applied the scratch X 2.0 with a foam applicator and rubbed it in. Then I buffed clean with a microfiber cloth. This stuff made a lot of the scratches go away!

    Sarah and I test drove a ford focus ST manual. I actually like how it drives! The clutch is smooth, the shift throw is smoother, and the 2.0 ecoboost isn't half bad!

    Also my AC SUCKS! It's cooler to drive with the windows down. Ugh. Gonna go get a recharger from autozone

    Looks like it worked suprising well, i think i need to get some of that. I have a few light scratches the whole length of my truck from a tight trail, they aren't very deep but i hate looking at them
