    Hey y’all I just bought my first Taco a week ago today! A 2020 TRD Offroad. So I went off-roading today because I’ve been itching to go and I got stuck and kinda hit a tree and scratched the front of my truck up... low key upset about it. Is it worth fixing? Other than that I love this truck! Handled the terrain like a champ!

    Welcome!
    I would say it depends on what you plan to do with the truck mod wise and if you really care about it. Popular front bumpers that most have on here would require the part that has the most damage to stay on (you cut the front bumper and leave that piece).

    So I went to the collision shop the dealership works with to get an estimate... quite a bit more than I’m willing to spend right now so I’m gonna leave the battle scar alone. Give the car some character haha.

    How about doing it yourself? Or maybe take it in to a paint correction shop and see if they can do something about it. Seems like the dealership plans to replace it.
