    I'm just holding out to see more pics & how it goes for the first few folks & to get grip on turnaround timeframe. I paypal backed by credit card so not too worried about that. Definitely gonna be sportin up the light bar/2 tabs if all goes well. Can't wait, excellent stuff goin on here. Props on the efforts..........

    Brandon got back to me as well. He quoted me a shipping cost of $105 to NY!! ouch...

    Anyway...I did a rough photoshop of the arctic Tacoma with 2 lights instead of 4, and I re-position the lights so they look evenly spaced. Feel free to email him the picture if that's the configuration you want.

    The shipping quotes are done off a UPS estimating calculator. We figured they'd be high to the east coast.

    Does this have the front receiver hitch like the Arctic ones? I can't tell.

    I thought the receiver hitch was mounted seperately to the frame reading somewhere about the arctic truck. Could be wrong. Wouldn't matter anyhow as long as light bar is mounted to bumper brackets I guess.

    Here's the pics I got from Brandon. I'm not sure if they're what you guys wanted, and I don't see one of the light tabs. For those that were wondering, the stock skid plate can still be used with no mods to it.

    Yeah buddy. The goal for this bumper/light bar shown, was to make a mount that didn't interfere with any of the stock bumper mounts, or necessitate the need to cut holes in the bumper cover.

    Fortunately, since we're both mechanics in the same shop, we had a lot of trucks to look at, so Brandon could plot out a mounting system, that was as sanitary as this one.

    Will this allow you to still have the TRD aluminum skid plate? Looks like it might based on this photo.............
