    just a 98 Tacoma with some new parts. 2wd, 160k miles
    i am looking to buy a bumper that is super light weight (i drive easily 400 miles a weekend and my gas mileage is already shitty) but can stand up to deer, or another car. just enough to protect my frame and engine. did not know what was out there. id love to build it but by the time i rent equipment for tig welder etc, it'd be just about the same as buying one. just was seeing if anyone knew of some good ones. if possible under 500 bucks. thanks yall!!

    My trail gear bumper took a deer at about 45mph and is perfectly fine. Granted, I didn't have the stinger type thing on it so i had to replace the grill, but besides that it is rock solid!

    I don't have a pic, but there is absolutely no damage to the bumper at all.
