lpol in all seriousness, the front clip is pretty much 100% fitable, but the endings are straight on the dub, and curved on our trucks

I don't like the look and it looks like it would drag alot. Also wouldn't it just crush your factory bumper in. You might as well just get one of the pre-runner pro comp light bars.

x2. If you can remove the front bumper and replace it with that bumper (black) it would look good.

I kinda think if your gonna do half the bumper why not do the whole thing I mean its not gonna be much more work?? As for the picture I too think its to low for any off road use but if it's gonna be just a street truck it will work but diffenetily reshape that stinger. Just my .02

Gotta love those Hydro right of ways... I think the push bumper on the army green one looks meaner and would probably be more robust in a colision then that stinger add on...

plus if you make that stinger too pointy you'll have the cops all over you for creating a "hazard to pedestrians"...

no street for this truck :p but the whole point was to have somthing protecting my truck/tow, without goin crazy with a huge bumper, because i have a 3'' bl, so bumpers look right akward on it

After looking at it again I would also think about losing the valance from the stock bumper may help the look out and clearance issues as well
