    Thank again. I got them from Tacomabeast.com. Easy install and great output. The flares came like that from the factory. Like I mentioned it’s the base model. The only option my truck has is the v6. Manual windows and locks, manual trans,2 speed wiper motor, and no cruise control.......yet

    Do you guys like the textured powder coat or would you rather the matte black? Whats the upside to textured? Is it just cheaper?

    I've been following this thread for a couple months and recently ordered this bumper and installed it last week. It's the 5 piece version and fitment isnt great but, I'm content with how it looks for the price.

    Looks awesome. Best thing I did to my truck. Did anyone notice a difference in mpgs for better or for worse? I might just be crazy but I swear my mpgs got slightly better with it on. Aerodynamics and what not wizardry

    I wouldn't think it would be better aerodynamicly considering the lower portion is just a flat wind shear.

    Whats the consensus on the newer 5 piece design? I was leaning toward this bumper but now not so sure.

    Man I think it adds character. It's gonna get beat up and scratched anyways.. Unless you're just a mall crawler.

    I’m starting to feel the same as well. Guess I need to start saving some more and looking elsewhere. .

    I have 3.5" and there is a little room left so 4" might be the best fit.

    I am a newb at wiring stuff so don’t judge too harshly. I want to know how you guys got those sexy round fog lights wired up. I thought i would be able to use the factory switch to turn my new lights off and on but it doesn’t work for me. I bought the Night lite round fogs and h11 male and female adapter wire. Ny plan was to cut the female end off, soldered the light wires and the exposed wires from the female side and stick the male plug into the stock fog light wires. Doesn’t work :mad:
