2016+ Tacoma TRD Pro Skid Plate

Aftermarket ones are $300ish and offer more protection than trd

 

What brand is that you have?

 

Me, I'm just waiting for the hand me downs from the TRDORs

Pro skids coming out should make more TRDOR skids hit the TW secondhand market. Though technically my SR is only missing the rear piece if I'm not mistaken.

 

For some people is the Idea of added weight but for me personally I wouldn't put much trust on an aluminum skid plate even the one off my wife's Raptor got replaced with a solid steel one

 

I have no plans to abuse my truck for awhile. Light off roading on hunting and fishing trips for now. Just want a little more protection for those trips than what the stock plate offers.

 

We will have to see how "functional" the TRD skid plate is. At $375 shipped for powder coated 1/4" aluminum TRD skid is technically only $15 more than the equivalent pelfreybilt option....RCI is around $370 shipped.

For the individuals that prefer AL+powder coating, the difference is moot, assuming that the TRD skid can handle some abuse.

The real verdict will come in due time.

 

If a piece of aluminum cost that much, the trd exhaust will probably cost a fortune. Holy moly.

 

The TRD plates are white... so add more $$ to have it powder coated a different color, say black FTW.

 

Nice! I like it. I am not sure if I am going to do front bumper for a while but this would be cool.. Also would be nice if RCI aluminium skids would marry up with this one.

I am definitely doing their alumin skids but like this TRD as the front one.

That was fast. I think the parts just came out this week..

Waiting on the TRD PRO Grill part to become avail..

 

I want to hear and see a price / availability for exhaust

 

My dealer told me they are listed on the computer for $699.00, once they become available for order, he said he'll knock-off 15%.

 

If you build a '17 Tacoma TRD Pro on Toyota.com the accessories page lists it for something like $799.

Bought my trd pro skid

 

So many quality aftermarket offerings. I really don't understand why anyone would spend $$ on the factory skid. Love my RCI skid plate and it's 3/16" steel.

Anyone know if the pro fox suspension will also be available for purchase?

 

It already is. Brofreshional.

 

It's just a preference difference. Also I personally don't plan to really take my 40k truck into places where I would damage my skid and my truck.

 

Really? I went to the dealer and told me only part number available fro the TRD Pro's were the skid plated, Do you have the partnumber for the suspension?
