    Just curious, what made you choose their front bumper over much better ones available(ARB,All pro, Relentless, CBI, etc..) ? I like and have their rear bumper(w/o tire carrier) but that front bumper looks too oversized,oddly shaped, and poor fitment for a Tacoma. Also doesn't seem like there's much room to access the winch controls unless you have small hands. IMO, pay an extra $200 and go with a better manufacturer.

    Cuz I got front and rear bumpers for just over 1k shipped their quality looks well built and I like the looks also not a serious off road but will put a winch on I like how the winch is hidden

    Take pics when mounted I really want to see how it looks. I am considering Body armor and I also like the tactical armor group bumper.
    I also am torn between Body armor and Fab four rear bumper
