    I can tell you 800sqft goes away really quickly with a CCLB, couple of toolboxes, and horse tack inside of it

    I'm not even planning on parking the CCLB in there. Just the tacoma. But the welding table/shelves/tool boxes/etc. will take up the rest

    So I got my new C4 hybrid bumper, light bars, pods, and switches but can't do it all on my own unfortunately. Who wants to help with a 3rd gen project and eat/drink some free pizza/beer?

    That's the hardest part for me so honestly I don't mind having a professional run all the wiring since I don't want to screw that up lol.

    I also don't have the tool to cut the OEM bumper either. Was thinking about buying one but if someone else has it already I could save some cash!

    I think you just need to Dremel slowly and don’t melt the plastic.

    You send it with an angle grinder and if it melts, it melts

    Dremel or angle grinder will do just fine. Plastic is going to melt no matter what, but you can just scrape it off and throw edge trim over it.

    Body saw or oscillating tool will reduce melting.

    Yeah that's what I was reading as far as it melting either way, just to scrape off the melted access.

    Here is a instructional video from C4 I was watching. Made it seem pretty easy enough just alot that needs to be removed.

    I have the lightbar that goes in the middle and 4 total squadron sport cube lights for the bumper.

    The second lightbar is for my prinsu that I bought back at the height of COVID and just haven't had the time to install either. It's the one from Cali Raised that is just slightly too big for the roof rack so you have to cut a small amount off each side of the front piece to allow it to fit.

    I believe I have the switches and wiring required as well but again I haven't got the slightest clue how to run electrical and would probably screw it all up.

    The guys in the video used an angle grinder.
    Of course they didn't show it though. So who knows how hard it was to clean up after too.
