    Got a response and they said it doesn't cause any issues.

    Anyone have one of these installed?

    I dont' even understand where this mounts I see two parking sensors...does it replace the grill? or is it the mustache? There are no pictures of it installed but it has a license plate relocation bracket so maybe its the lower area...seems like it would be better to get a hidden winch mount bumper for that location rather than this chinesium piece of art. It looks flat so I don't understand how its a bull bar. Sure its no Drill but also its no installation instruction either. Seems like a cheap piece of sheet metal with a likely $5.00 led light in it for ~$500.00

    Looking at where it mounts too, it may be no drill but I'm assuming you would have to hack up the lower valance to get it to lay in there too

    I'm holding off until I see someone who has one. I'm not so brave as to order this without seeing it on a vehicle first.

    Searched around and found something

    Towards the bottom of this page there is a picture that maybe looks photo shopped but look at the bottom of this page....if that is what this thing is than I would say at $500.00 that is about $350 more than it should cost. I like how they say protection for your front end on the website and I'm not sure this would protect much more than hitting a small cardboard box

    Put the $500.00 doll hairs toward buying a real bumper or hidden winch mount setup and bonus points would be recovery points come with a hidden mount and other bumpers.

    This Black Horse Off Road ARMOUR Bull Bar-Matte Black-2022-2024 Toyota Tundra product is simply cheap dog shit sold at an exorbitant price.

    Good find!

    Hard to say if it's photoshoped or real but either way not too happy with the overall look.

    Someone woke up and chose violence!

    That's fine though, appreciate the opinions.

    With all the above said, does anyone have any recommendations for a known and verified bull bar? Don't have a need for a winch and don't want to change the bumper.

    google "2022 tundra bull bar", there are plenty of cheap-o bull bars out there including the "black horse" under different names.

    Could also try looking through search results on the site for bull bar in the 3ed gen section
    https://www.tundras.com/search/6936076/?q=bull+bar&o=date&c=[node]=128


    Looks like the "black horse" is sold under different brands where there are pictures of it installed

    That definitely looks like it interferes with sensors.
