    I'm really considering doing this since I was just in an accident on my 2005 tacoma and most of the front end needs to be replaced. Now what do would you say definately needs to be OEM and what would be ok if I went aftermarket? I have a 5 lug so no fender flares,fog lights or hood scoop on my truck. Thanks

    Now I read on a mother thread that all the clips and small parts can be aftermarket but the big stuff has to be oem or else it won't line up and there will be small gaps. Does anybody know about this?

    I would recommend going with an aftermarket tube/plate bumper. The bumper cover, brackets clips, fogs, etc... Is where I spent a chunk of money. For the headlightsand grill I looked into craigslist. I was able to get both for $150. The hood I got off Carparts.com for $130 shipped with a scoop but then the insert was another $150.
