Alex, the bumper looks good! Sorry I didn't get to respond before your install, just logged in for the first time in over a week.

Camera angle....??? This is an illusion. With 5" lift and 35s at was looking very tall and narrow. After I added TC Long Travel it gave me 4" wider truck on front and 2.5" on the back. Then I had an issue with stick past fenders tires, so to cover them up and for additiuonal protection I made tube fenders. After that it start looking normal again. It 7" higher then stock and 4" wider (in wheel stand) in numbers. One of the illusion facts were adding rear mudflaps. Before them It was looking a little tall, but after putting them on visually it start looking like I actually lowered it an inch or so. I'm addressing it to the look of stock one with tiny wheels and narrow mudflaps. As you see vision sometimes can make interesting things...
Try those ones:

Question for those with either the Taco ARB Bull Bar or the Prado ARB Bull Bar: what is the overall length difference from OEM?

The easiest way to get a consistent measurement is probably from the grill or a headlight to the furthest point out of the bumper. I don't think there's an issue, but I want to make sure I'm not increasing the length of the truck significantly, if at all.

Thanks!!!
