    UPDATE: 10-30, group buy is closed, coupon codes sent.

    Here's the deal:

    1. We need a minimum of 10 to offer pricing on the Group Buy, today we are at 5.
    2. IF we were to hit 20 I'd throw in 2 of the Van Beest shackles for FREE.

    Spread the word, the clock in ticking!
    ------------------

    Go read this thread to get some background on this bumper but for those who don't know we redesigned an existing product and are about ready to put this in production.

    taco05-1024.jpg taco05-1024-2.jpg taco05-1024-side2.jpg taco05-1024-side.jpg

    So as of today, I'm going to open this to 30 buyers with 10 backups. This bumper will retail for $525 but I'm going to offer this here for $475 and FREE FedEx Ground to the lower 48 (PM me for Canada, etc).

    I am not sure how to add my name to this list, but....... I'M IN!! You can add me to the list when ever you get a chance. One question I do have is with the bumper and lets say........ an XRC 8 or a Warn M8000 winch mounted on the front, do think my front end is going to droop? I have a Bilstien 2.5 - 3" lift. (Never Measured not Really Sure!?)

    Test fit went well. Thanks to XJuice (Josh) for letting us use his Taco again.

    We have a few small tweaks to make but nothing that will delay things. Changes will be made in CAD Monday and scheduled for production after that. Figure 3 weeks to start shipping.

    Photos added to first post.

    Well... no. I guess you could grab a shackle but you can't get under the shackle mounts as they are angled.

    Not sure it's the safest method but probably work ok.

    I'm down!! Hoping this group buy is open for a while...... 20 people is quite a bit, hope we can get enough to jump on board. Any idea on how long you plan on keeping it open? Next month would totally work better for me but either way I'm IN! Do you mind shooting a side image of the bumper.... like a profile shot? I was curious if this sits flush with the rest of the bumper or does it kind of stick out and cause a lip next to the corners.

    There is a side shot in the first post, it blends with the bumper cover. I can't shoot any more photos as it's off of the vehicle now.

    When we did a group buy for the 12+ version last year it hit 30+ (then a second for several months later for around 20) and as many people that have messaged/emailed/called about this bumper I have to believe we will have 20. Once the GB is over it's over so however many we have on the 21st then that's what we will run with.

    I'm just surprised there isn't more responses on this thread..... weird I guess there is still plenty of time. I guess I just check the thread quite a bit.... haha dumb excitement. I hope it goes well, the products I have seen personally on the new gen tacomas are sharp!! Good Job with everything man.
    I will post this thread to the PNW guys and see if there is any other interest!

    Side note.........
    You guys ship any decals or stickers I could add to the truck with the new bumper

    Spreading the word is greatly appreciated.

    We always ship decals with our bumpers... guaranteed to add 5-10HP!

    Ok guys... CAD is adjusted, production scheduled and everything is moving forward now. Let's get this list knocked out. Today is the 8th so less than two weeks left on this group buy.
