Remember to search by "Kennesaw" - NOT KENMTNAC

You'll get better results

Go with DeMello

I saw this post on ttora this morning so I assume it was you over there also. Multiple people have had issues with this guy so I would stay away. Better safe than sorry.

I still have their older style front bumper. It has served me well but I also had delivery problems as well, only about 6 weeks, but was told it would only be 1-2 weeks. I also had to fabricate all my own mounting brackets:

It wasn't me on TTORA. But, I will stay away from this guy. There just aren't many bumper options for 3rd gens.

Has anyone had done good business with this guy. I really like that bumper and want one, but don't want to deal with someone who does't operate responsibly. Think I could just get the plans and get someone to fab it?

from what ive seen and read here on yotatech, scheafer and demello are the two quality guys who know how to build on a yota, and those are the ones i would trust when going with a bumper. obviously tjm and arb make front bumpers for 3rd gen runners. but for rear bumpers, its basically gona be custom.

awwww.. dog pooop. They are currently making a rear bumper for my tundra. I read on some thread that they were good. Not sure if it was here or not, but they were the only ones who claim that they have a "blueprint" of a bumper for the tundra.
I put a dep of 135 on 11/16. i emailed them earlier this week and i recieved an email today saying that they are waiting for some parts to finish assembling it.
They told me 6-8 weeks from the date of the deposit. OH oh.. Please wish me luck guys!!!
