    The TSS is in grill, this has nothing to do with the grill so yes it would be compatible

    It’s a legit question as the Pro grill puts the TSS in the lower 1/3 of the grill. The short bull bar looks to be close to interfering. They chose to show pictures of a truck with pro grill but no TSS (Twonz has a 2017).

    Not to take away from the bumper cause its the best looking one I've seen so far, hopefully overtime the price will come down.

    It will work, my buddy has KC lights on his and sits really high on his bumper and his TSS works just fine.

    Can we get a walk-around video on this bumper? I would like to see more about it, I know it sounds expensive but you get what you pay for.

    Agree, brute force fab made a very similar bumper with no filler plates and high hoop back in 2016. It was mounted on a stock tacoma so it looked a little strange. But for $800 and a phone call to modify to your liking you are way better off besides lead time. He offers PC for $185. (Note Second Gen quotes but pricing are very similar from previous discussions).

    Yeah, the low bar sits below the line of sight of the TSS. Will also have a mid bar that sits above the TSS and a high bar.

    Yeah, we will get an install video together and a walk along showing all angles and explaining why we did what we did. You definitely get for what you pay, the price was originally at $1,500 but had to lower it to try to be competitive. Other hybrid bumpers have simple lines which cut down on fab time, we try to follow the body line and use extra impact bracing. We will go through all that in the video.
    I know exactly what you are talking about haha. I'll add more and more photos of different angles and then the walkaround video too. Here's another photo showing the bumper skid and how it ties into the TRD skid with minimal gap. We will also be doing other bumper skids to match the RCI skid plate.TDV02369.jpg

    Great picture there, no denying it looks fantastic.

    I’ve been waiting on a good tube/hybrid and yours is leading the way!

    C4 is nice but I don’t love the straight across look and Mobtown should have one out soon too

    It's getting there.
    I hopped on the C4 bandwagon and am awaiting mine, but this bumper looks really good too!

    Haha, you’re not joking though. I have deposits down on full skids and sliders from dec last year and I have no idea when I’ll see them

    Was waiting for the SSO stage 2 for my slimline bumper but this might have changed my mind. Hows the compatibility with other skid plates? I've got a CBI front skid on the way
