Armordillo 7166127 AR Pre-Runner Style Modular Bumper Grille Guard - Matte Black Fits 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma

This has met all my expectations, it’s very solid, looks great, fit my truck perfectly and was relatively easy to install. I was able to install myself all alone, and shipped in 4 major parts, some brackets and all the hardware, packed in nicely into 1 large box. It was heavy padded for shipping, and appeared very secure as I unpacked it all. Took me a total of 2 hours to install, and came with instructions that actually had pictures. The only issue I found was the instructions were not for my exact year/type and the pictures showed unnecessary steps in beginning about removing air gap bumper shield- maybe a later or different year or model might require that, but mine (2018 off-road ) did not and so I took it off for nothing and just had to put back on- after that, the pictures and instructions matched up really well for mounting it. My advice, just don’t over think it, it’s fairly intuitive once you get going on installing it.... solid as a rock afterwards and will certainly add protection from all the deer in my country residence! Highly recommend anyone thinking about this as it covers the entire bumper including the corners which is why I wanted it over a standard bull bar. If I can do it, anybody can...

I got this for my 2018 Toyota Tacoma SR5 double cab.Box was a bit beat up, but everything was very well wrapped nothing was damaged. Loved how the packaging was wrapped and broken up for each step. i.e. support arms & small parts with instructions, next the main part that goes over the grill with the rest of the small parts and instructions. Yes, they have photos however not to car savvy lol.We were able to get most of it installed with help of brother till husband showed up with the power tools and the adapter (Didn't know we had boy was I mad we had been working on it by HAND for a 3 hours) once husband showed up with the tools was able to zip zip and done. It looks great and very solid not too heavy.

You will need to make cut outs in your plastic air dam which is under the bumper, so have marking tools and a saw of some sort to cut the air dam.You can have a helper hold the removed air dam up against the installed brush guard brackets and make marks on where to cut air dam.Hopefully you can make the correct cut outs on the first try, if not keep fitting and nibbling away at the cuts until you get the fit you need.Just a little detail but an important detail that isn’t clearly described in the installation instructions.Grill guard otherwise bolted up nicely and looks great.

Last attachment was on top tubing and it had a slight angle bend difference (not uniform on both sides) so it could not be attached. I paid a fab shop to correct issue and was refunded the cost by Amazon

Perfect fit and look for my Tacoma. Well built!

INSTALLATIONThe installation was ok. A few hard to reach spots infront of the radiator.STURDINESSThe main center body of the bumper is held together by 4 bolts from brackets mounted to the frame. The two strut support bars bolt onto steel directly infront of the radiator. The angled tubing under the headlight is mounted with 4 small bolts. The top bar is mounted onto the previously mentioned angled tubing.It is my personal belief that this bumper is purely a brush guard. A direct hit from a deer or any other vehicle with any amount of speed would destroy the bumper and all the front end parts you'd want it to protect.It looks ok. Aggressive definitely but it's all asthetics.VALUE FOR MONEYMain reason I chose this guard and I regret it. Save your money and buy a quality guard that will protect the front end of your vehicle.

Great product. Directions for the center brackets could be better. They need to review that part of the directions and take better pictures.

Looks good, kinda bulky …trying to figure a way to sturdy it up … not much holding it on .. bottom bolts provided are darn near impossible to get in so I ran longer bolts I had all the way thru

It fits perfectly. Installation took little longer. The provided pictures are not clear enough to give a good understanding where the two brackets are to be attached. Once I figured out installation became easier. Very hard to access the two nuts in order to tighten.

instalation tres facilefit super bien

Where do I start. The instructions force you to throw them away because their just that bad. Thank god for you tube. Parts bent, had to buy new hardware because what was in the pkg looked used and didnt fit, the mounting of the adapter on the bull bar....well they was no nut installed on either side as per the instructions, what you was a nut welded onto a bracket that you had to try and hold with your fingers until you got the bolt started( no room for pliers) . Enough complaining but once I cut my fairing there was no turning back.

Instructions were unclear for installation and you will likely need to go to the hardware store to find some missing pieces but once you get it on their, it looks great and the light bar works great. Low profile enough that it won't interfere with the radar cruise control and you won't need to buy an add-a-fuse but a better switch is a must, overall very happy with it.
