    Anyone got themselves an after market front bumper that you like and have good things to say about? Really got my eyes on the CBI Moab 2.0 front bumper. Not sure if there’s any cutting or trimming required when it comes to 2nd gen Tacoma’s, *i know the 3rd gen require trimming*. Let me know w pics of yours or you have a bumper!

    Subbed I’m also looking at front bumpers and have no idea what I want. Only thing I know so far is I’m not a fan of the bumpers that come up around grille and headlights. I know the functionality of that is probably great for protecting it in the woods or from collision. I just personally think it totally kills the front end look for me.

    I totally agree, the CBI 2.0 one I really like has a single hoop that comes up over the grill and I really really dig it!! Looks hella nice

    I personally really like the bumpers that are this kinda style. The ones that blend in with the fender and body lines well and hides some lights or a winch or both. The top photo is made by victory 4x4 and I keep leaning towards that. I like the style a lot. I just don’t know how the quality or mounting is. Haven’t had time to do and research on reviews or anything. Idk who makes the second picture.

    @mthew96 both of those are clean! I’ve actually seen that second one but can’t seem to remember who makes it

    Any high clearance bumper will require trimming. If it didn't, it wouldn't be high clearance. It has to come from SOMEwhere :)

    I like the look of the Demello bumpers personally. You can get them with varying bull bar heights or no bull bar.

    They're both Victory 4x4 bumpers. Check the logo on the second image.

    @TuRDLYFE i really like Demello bumpers as well. I want one that doesn’t stick out super far from the side profile as much. I’d probably spend a few extra hundred to have it installed professionally somewhere as well unless they’re easy to install??

    Depends on how anal you want to be with your cuts and if you have help or not. Feel free to look around Plenty of guys have installed similar bumpers and it seems the time to install is anywhere from 6-12 hours.

    I only have high praise for sos offroad concepts. Just recently installed it only trimming I had to do was the tow loop on the drivers side no other trimming otherwise.

    They’re pretty straight forward to install. I did it by myself in about 2 hours

    There's hundreds of options for fogs. Most of the aftermarket manufacturers will list on their websites which lights their bumpers are cut to fit. Some allow you to customize the cutouts to the light manufacturer/model of your choosing.
