    I've gone to Mike's Truck Outfitters in Santa Clara (right behind SJ Airport) a couple of times. Decent prices and they do good work.

    just stop by toyota HB on your way up. hear they do bumper installs

    as jason said its pretty easy with friends, and the perfreys are nice and light so they are easy to lift in place.

    Milo is good for local.

    If you want to drive a bit further, there's PhIggy (@Overlanerd and @Iggy) in Benecia. Both guys can order practically everything you'd need or even be a shipping point to deliver/install and are highly recommended by folks here in the bay.

    I'm gonna look into this place because the bumper is still being built and they're 3 weeks behind their completion date which was supposed to be last week. They're gonna ship it up north for me so I kinda need to find a shop to ship the bumper to.

    I used to be a GM at a shop nearby, we recruited him to come work for us. Shortly after I left he started working on his own jobs at his own shop. He's not a taco specific guy, but can work on the trucks and do custom fabrication kind of stuff.
