    lets get back to the original topic at hand. I want this bumper, but i dont want any powdercoating on it. Where can i find it not on Ebay? I asked the ebay seller and they dont sell it without it. does DV8 make them? KO Offroad is listed in the ebay ad but doesnt have a website that i can find.

    All the companies are tied together, best anyone has found out. You likely won't find the actual manufacturer since it's probably overseas.

    FWIW, the pc isn't all that great. Find a place to have it blasted off. Still be in it way less than the real AP bumpers.

    I figured the PC wasnt of the highest quality. I dont want it for a couple reasons. 1. i will need to modify this thing when i put 40s on my taco and the PC will get in the way of me welding. Dont want to redo it. 2. im not a fan of wrinkle PC. Would rather have a nice smooth black.

    The only thing you've made is a mockery of these procedings.

    This is my first time commenting about this topic (just so you don't confuse me with the other Joe from Mobtown).

    Your example is terrible. Toyota didn't make a name for themselves because they were cheap. Toyota had been making small cars for years because Japan was short on natural resources so supplies of steel were hard to come by. They struggled to enter the market here for a long time because they weren't making the product that US consumers wanted. They started to gain market share during the oil crisis. Before that point, US automakers didn't even considering making small cars. Toyota was already positioned to take market share from the Big 3 as consumers looked for small more fuel efficient cars. They certainly didn't take someone's design, outsource the manufacturing to somewhere cheaper and then undercut the competition. If anything, Toyota did the opposite. They operated in Japan when resources were limited and expensive. The product they designed reflected those limitations. The moral of their success has more to do with having the right product at the right time.

    I give @Mobtown Offroad my vote. Cool guys and super nice. I organized a group buy for all the guys in Hawaii (Oahu specifically) and they were super cool and came in on black Friday close to 8pm for me to pick up everyone's stuff. Seeing his operation and product quality I say they charge right on par for what they offer. Good solid products and what market price for tacoma armor goes for. I'm personally still shopping for a bumper myself and while yes this bumper is on my list a lot of others are too. It does suck sifting through 300+ pages of stuff to see your questions answered. But some of these Q&As that are balls deep in this thread and hard to find could be that little gem that sways someone's decision.

    I tried to get it with no PC and it ain’t happening. It’s shipped from China with the PC on it.

    Anyone know any circular lights I can buy that just fit into the bumper slots bc they’re just empty rn thanks!! And I finished my install and boy this bumper exceeded my expectations! No damage and fit nicely.... except for the dumb a** sway bar geez I just took it off and threw it because it wasn’t even worth trying to mount the lower bumper underneath the sway bar bushings lol

    Maybe it's the angle of the pic but the bumper looks angled up. The bumper's design looks a little like my all pro's and if that's the case, 4" fogs such as PIAA's would fit.

    On mine there’s like a little ledge with a circle in the middle right behind the hole for the light. Is there something that just mounts onto that like a direct fit?

    There's a small tab at the bottom of the opening that should accomadate mounting fogs like this.
