No cut bumper for 3rd gen

I’ve been looking for a bumper for 23 Tacoma that doesn’t require any cutting.

This is the best one I found but I’m not sure if I like the way the light bar mounts and wanted to see if anyone here had any recommendations.

Why don't u want to cut anything. It's not as bad as it seems. R4T sells bumper caps so you don't even need to cut your OEM bumper

 

I'd just rather not cut anything, but I will if I have to. Also I don’t the bumper caps would help me because I’m looking at bumpers that are more like this one.

I’m a 21OR and didn’t want to cut either.

That said, I just put the SSO slimline on last weekend. I think it’s the best OEM- looking bumper.

 

Do you know what parts would need to be replaced to go back to stock?

 

a new front bumper cover.

 

For the time being, I’ve kept everything else that was removed- the center black plastic piece, the aluminum crash bar, the aluminum frame extension pieces and the black plastic underneath “bumper.”

So if you ditch those, they’d be additional parts to replace, but like Justin said you only cut the cover.

 

Cutting your truck is a rite of passage. Not only is it easy (with comfortable technique), it puts you in a group of people with balls further down the periodic table of nuts.

I used an angle grinder and it was quick and accurate.

 

I came across this video a few days ago and you cut only part of the middle section, a lot easier to return to stock imo. I’m with you on not wanting to cut, so I may go this route

That's what I put on my truck back in January. Damned nice bumper! The only cut is the very bottom of the bumper cover.

 

No-cutters were the kids who had to dip their pinky toes to test the pool temperature.

You want to be able to change your mind if you don't like it.

I say that once in a while, you just have to enjoy life, damn the consequences, and go for a blind cannonball. There are no regrets on the other side.

 

Looks great! And I’m glad you like it as well, thanks for the pictures, I think this will be my route as well

 

Do you think fog lights can be mounted in the holes under the light bar?

 

Like the thinking behind the Blitz, not a fan of logo and some have said the mount brackets won't survive a pull out.

 

That looks excellent.

 

what about this one?

^^ THIS ^^

There's no fun in NOT cutting up a good truck!

 

Thank you, worst part? Deciding to cut it

 

It wouldn't be easy, plus, the right side hole is access to the gear selector for the winch.

 

On top of my list, I like the no bull bar and understated profile.
