Opinion on Iron Bull Bumper

I'm interested in buying a bumper from this company

Has anyone bought one from them and what's your opinion on their bumpers

I'm looking to the a bumper with the sniper 4 grille guard

My thoughts, it does not look good at all on Tacoma. To massive and bulky for it.

 

it looks like BroDozer gear to me.
In my mind, the Tacoma is a small to midsized agile offroad and city cruiser, not highway land missile doing 85 MPH down the highway hauling cattle or momma's nearly $80k, 32 foot long resort on wheels.


again, just my opinion, but you asked.
I am also in the camp, that many of these battery rams instantly and directly transfer force to the frame causing more damage and possibly injury too. Controversial subject around here, but before you scoff at that part,,, ask yourself: has it been officially crash tested with published certifications and results?

If you do get it, be sure to add 3 foot long towing mirrors to be left out at all times, and a giant Chinesium nut sack to dangle off your 2 foot long drop hitch.

 

Super cheesy. Way too much.

 

HARD no

 

I had a good laugh from reading that

But yeah I understand
It just allot bumpers you pay just for the brand or the design of bumper doesn't look it should be that price

Also at least this company show their bumper can take a beating and have they some nice pictures for the Tacoma
I have more confidence buying from them compare to other bumper companies

If I getting into a car accident, might as well take them with me
We already have a lower chance of surviving in a mid size truck
If I want to survive I should of bought a bigger truck

 

WAY WAY WAY too big.

 

Do it

 

Reminds me of the character from Forest Gump who wanted his own shrimp boat. Way too ugly even for a third gen lol

 

Awesome! the XL trucknutz should be perfect to level it out…

 

Hideous IMO. There are far better options for similar $$$$.

 

Recommendations for bumpers?

 

ARB, best in the biz, crash tested and designed to take on kangaroos at 55mph with minimal to no damage to the vehicle in question.
They take their business seriously, it’s not about what looks cool, it’s about functionality.
They are heavy, so be prepared for that, just installed one on my Taco after a deer decimated my front end. I’ll sacrifice an mpg or two for some peace of mind. I live in a heavily populated deer area so it’s worth it to me.
If you’re not concerned with functionality and just want something that looks cool, C4 fabrication are bangin in my opinion.

 

Will it interfere with the tss sensor?
I was looking at that bumper before and the bumper stick up to the grill a bit
I have a trd grill

 

No idea, I’m a 2nd gen Tacoma member, but given that ARB makes bumpers for 3rd gens I would assume there are workarounds. Hopefully a 3rd gen member chimes in to answer you.

Is there a updated version?
Most of the sites or bumpers no longer exist
