    Check out mcautoparts.com for a Pro grill with the sensor. Thats what I did on my 21 Trail edition and it works fine.

    Lol, nope. Just remember wishing there were better pics when I was making my decision. And sitting around bored while babysitting the turkey.

    I wanted to thank everyone for their amazing input.
    This is why I love Tundras.com.

    Informative and found a killer deal.

    I went with the CBI!

    I actually got it for less than the C4!

    Thanks! @Truck Brigade

    I went with the CBI Baja, I know it's probably going to interfere with the TSS but I want a Pro Grill anyway. Currently, it's still on the pallet it shipped on. It's a work of art, the welds are awesome. This this is heavy as hell too. I can't wait to get this thing put on.

    Easy way to decide, how many of those LP6's or LP9's can you afford? 2 or 4? Personally I'd like a pair of white 9's with a pair of amber 6's.:rofl:

    Ha! None. I have to go with regular folks lights.
    I can dream though.

    Believe I’ll be running some “foreign” lights at first.

    Actually, have some Odello (?) or something like that from Amazon. They are similar too.
    I’ve used Oz brand lights with great success as well.

    have you received your front bumper from CBI, I'm currently contemplating - I like CBI but I need to see how real life example looks like and not from the manufactures website.

    Yep.

    Just the other day.
    It’s really nice.
    Hope to get it painted this weekend.

    Great, looks well packaged

    why would you need to paint, is it not powder coated?

    I opted to go with a bed liner coating.
    Easier, more durable and less expensive.
    If my calculations are correct in coverage, I should have about $60.00 in materials.

    Check out my posts and pics in this thread - https://www.tundras.com/threads/3rd-gen-bumpers.9193/page-17#post-2132792
    I go over the CBI bumper pretty well and it took me 4 months to get from October til February.(They did give me free powder coating I guess for the long wait). I also ordered thru TruckBrigade and they are great.

    I know this may be somewhat a rhetorical question but how are these bumpers for protection?

    the C4 and CBI are they practical?.

    Would I be able to knock a moose off the trail doing 25-45MPH and be able to drive the vehicle - at least sustain minimum damage.

    I don't mean to hijack this thread but I feel like if I add a 300lb $1800 bumper I need some sort of front face protection incase anything happens.

    best,
    hefemi.
