    Hi Everyone
    I wanted to put a Aluminum Bull Bar on my 2008 Tacoma 4dr 4X4 40L Auto. I want to keep the factory skid plate any suggestions? If you have one a pic would be great

    Thank's
    Mark

    I beg to disagree... they add at least 30 hp and they look cool. Better than decals even. I want one just to keep the brush off my Pro grill... and if anything big hits it, probably going to total it anyway, so multiply away.

    I plan to make mine from steel and come through the bumper from a new steel inner "bumper" assembly with heavy duty shackle points. Haven't seen many off the shelf versions I liked...
