    Unfortunately this is my 5th tundra and the first one to be in an accident. I was rear-ended 2 weeks ago and now I don't know what I should do. It's going to need a new bumper but do I try and get a replacement or go aftermarket? Any advice? I'm guessing it's going to take longer to get a factory replacement than an aftermarket one.

    If you like it sock, keep it stock. Cheap to fix. Aftermarket bumper will add weight and the truck will squat. You'll have to address that with the aftermarket shackles or whatever.

    Good point on the weight. I didn't even consider that. I do have a front and rear kit on it from Toytec, but it would add weight that I probably don't want.
