    No... I could have sworn I took a pic of the box before I tossed it but I couldnt find it when I went through the pics in my phone. Maybe I took it with my gfs phone. I will look this evening.

    Not sure what paint she used either. Pretty sure it was just some indoor/outdoor stuff that she had from the craft store. We will see how well it holds up.

    Hey Matt , thanks for meeting me on short notice , skidplate looks great .:)
    Silly question , I did not look under the truck yet , is factory cover stays on and your skid goes on top or just remove factory one out ?

    Thanks , Mike

    Yeah it sits piggyback on the oem skid.

    The rear bolts (the ones closer to the cab) you loosen and slide the trd skid onto... the front bolts (closest to the front of the truck) you remove and install longer bolts. (I had to use longer ones.. the stock ones did not work) I installed an OEM TRD skid on mine.. but the one for sale in this thread is a copy of it so it should mount the same way.

    Just got my skid yesterday. Here is a pic installed. This is a very well thought out design from the bends to utilizing the stock mounting position to the dubbed TRD stamp to retaining the stock oem skid to the perfectly straight thin gap where the skid meets the bumper. I love every aspect of it. Great design Matt and congrats on tying the knot!

    So the past few days I've been taking random pics throughout the day so you could see it. Didn't come out on my phone. I can see it from 20 ft. That's the furthest I've walked out a building and looked but since it's black on black it's hard to tell its there.
