    I want to get a hybrid front bumper from Tacoma lifestyle and in the customization part it asks if I want the bumper wider for fiberglass fenders I'm going to get bigger fenders soon I just don't know if it will be the right size, it asks me if i want it wider I don't know if I need it to be (its the bumper below)
    Heres the link to the bumper C4 Fabrication Hybrid Front Bumper (2005-2011) — Tacoma Lifestyle

    Go look at the specs of the fenders you're planning on getting. The fiberglass fenders they are referring to is typically 3" wider. Therefore, if you get the wider bumper, it will be wider by 3" on both sides.

    I'd just email C4 and tell them you're getting the +2, +4, etc fenders from X-company and ask them what they recommend, do they build them different widths for different fenders or just one larger width - if so, what that is, etc.
