Giving My 3rd Generation TOYOTA TACOMA A DRASTIC NEW LOOK! + GIVEAWAY!

Installing the coolest protection for the front of my 3RD generation toyota tacoma!! Today's video is brought to you by Tacoma Beast! I just got in the Hybrid series front bumper, powder coated and made of steel! What a cool new mod for the tacoma and it weights about half as much as the traditional full front bumpers. I like this option because it still gives you the durability along with being able to mount a winch, light bar and other accessories! In the future I can also add the size pieces to give a little more clearance in front of the tires and still not have a bulky looking front end. With the tacoma being a mid size truck, it doesn't need a huge front bumper, so this is a perfect way to make the truck look close to factory, but have better capabilities for offroad use! Also don't forget to subscribe to us on KZread along with Tacoma Beast and comment below for your chance to win the tow strap and D hooks!
As far as the installation process goes for this, it really isn't too difficult. After taking off the bumper cover and the crash bar, I had to take the bumper half off in order to remove the crash bar. From there it was time to cut the bumper, so you only have to cut the top portion and not just the bottom piece like I thought. After a lot of measuring I luckily only had to cut the stock bumper once! With the trim piece on, it was time to fit the hybrid series front bumper and we had really good fitment! This is one modification that is not going back to stock, but it has way more functions then the plastic stock piece, so I am ok with that and it looks very cool!!

    Thank you everyone for the comments! It was awesome to see what builds you have going on and what you would use the strap and hooks for! I have picked a winner and the update video for that will be going up tomorrow! We will be doing giveaways more because it was awesome to interact with all of you so stay tuned for that! We might have to do another strap and hook giveaway since it was so popular!!

Your video was a huge help. i changed the order a bit and it required less disassembly - i marked and trimmed the opening after removing the black center piece and before removing the crash bar and the crash bar came right out without having to remove all the bumper shroud fasteners

I also fabricated an extension for the winch clutch release so you can free spool the line out. I used maybe 10" of 3/8 stainless tubing- and then put the knob on top and made a bracket to secure it. Both are under the hood but you wont have to reach down if you're stuck.

    Very nice clean installation, well done. I installed the same style front bumper so I could add a winch (at the same time). One minor note, leaving that D ring on the front is not the best idea. First it will scratch up the bumper and second its a magnet for a thief. I leave mine in my winch bag. Keep up the good work.

You paid a good amount of money for it, might as well put it somewhere that will throw light, not block it. And 2. Should have put a winch in there while it was all off. I know you are gonna put a winch on that truck...keep up the content. I got an 06 Tacoma I’m building out. Fun stuff man.

    You should just be able to remove the grill, but depending on the mounting location, might have to take the bumper off. Try it first with just taking the grill out and if needed, the bumper will come out. But it's easy to take on and off after all that trimming and install!

    So the edge trim piece came with my bumper, but you can find normal "door edge guard" that's maybe 1/8-1/4 inch, just enough to cover the edge of course. And I don't remember the size of the adaptor on the oscillating tool, but if you already have one, Im sure it can work with the size you have. But the one I had was probably 1/2 wide if that helps!

    The bumper has been installed roughly 2.5 years at this point. Can you make a follow up video to give your impression now that you've had it for a couple years? Interested in specifically knowing how the radiator is holding up due to it being more vulnerable to potential road debris damage because of the new bumper. Also, how is the bumper coating holding up to the elements? Any rust? Fading? Cracking? Fitment issues? Has it proven itself in a real world test of its ability to use tow straps and not just look pretty? Good video.

I had a front tag covering that opening, but even if I didn't I wouldn't worry about that, but that's just me. My radiator has zero damage from anything! The coating has held up just fine! My new bumper is powder coated as well and it'll last a long time! I didn't have any problems with this bumper and I didn't use the tow hooks but I have on my new bumper and they are all the same!
