You are a good dad, Just thinking to myself👍

Thank you, I do my best.

Looks great! I just bought a white Tacoma and I was looking for this Body Armor bumper installed on a white truck and it looks SHARP! Due to 4th July sales, I might be able to get a similar setup for around 1k. I don't have a son strong enough to help install the bumper so I'll have to figure that part out 😂 Thanks for the detailed video...

[@Mr-E-rM]

All the videos I’ve seen for this bumper show that cutting is needed. It looks like you were able to install with no cutting? Did you have any issues with the winch and such doing it that way?

[@ourmidlifecrisis]

Yes if you watch the video I show you where to cut the plastic bumper cover in a simple way. No issues with the winch at all if you follow the instructions.

[@Mr-E-rM]

I don’t know how I missed that part. I’ve watched it a couple times and I missed it.

[@ourmidlifecrisis]

use that tool for best results and control

Put the wings on it and then u see how it looks it a hard cut to make it is 1/4inch line under the fog light then tape making tape under that line devise the tape I half and that the cut line for the wing to the top bolt of the fender 4 3/4 down your mark for then end of the cut then u have a bumper😊

Did you paint that Body Armor front bumper black? All others I see are a charcoal or dark gray. What is the actual color on yours? Great job!

Keep making great videos

[@crazymracuber8]

Loved it

[@travblurr8043]

Does anyone make a bumper similar to the Body Armor that doesn't require you to cut the OEM bumper?

[@marcleblanc928]

Does this fit the 2023 tacoma

[@ourmidlifecrisis]

yes

Thanks for the great video. I was wondering why people take the whole bumper off just to remove the black plastic piece and then put the bumper back on to cut it..
