TTE front bumper Yes or No

[Joesson]

Thats a hard one as they both look good.

The current one with the spats probably looks a bit more "special" though.

Its a bit hard to see the detail of the TTE one in black but I guess they are pretty rare so some plus points there.

Could you have both and swop over? I have 3 front bumpers myself!

We shouldn't be surprised that you have 2 extra front bumpers, you also have 2 extra cylinders!

One thing in favour of TTE and TRD is that, as mentioned, it is Toyota. As such the stuff can be easily entered in the vehicle docs. as a factory approved modification. I know, I know, some will say option.

Bernie I'm surprised your asking us what we think - if you like it go for it!

It's got rarity value - I've never seen another one in the flesh.  From your photo it does look good and won't distract from the rest of your car.  You can always swop between your current one and the TTE anytime if you want a change!  Personally I don't like the prefacelift bumper (sorry Simon  ) but I know others do and each to his own - they are not rare either 

I agree it does need to have the fog holes fitted with DRL's - I've just fitted the Osram Fog/DRL's to Mrs K's Toyota IQ & I've got the Hamish ones fitted to the MR2.  I feel a lot safer driving with DRL's as it does help people to see you on the road.  I also agree that the TTE would look better maybe with a stainless mesh like the Zunsport - maybe they could fabricate one for you?

Hopefully you'll decide to go for it, and if you do I look forward to seeing it.  Mark

Hi Mark
I've been in 2 minds about the bumper, I'm happy with my 2 and this is quite a big change to take on.
I've contacted Zunsport and waiting to hear back on wether they will make custom grilles
I'm also at present struggling to find 45mm dia lights to fit the smaller size holes
I'm probably going to go for it
Thanks all for your comments

P.S. Where did you get the "Side indicator chrome finishers"?

Side repeaters are common size across many models think from memory was a Hilux trim worth a trawl on eBay

Found them, and already have them in my hands.

Hilux mk6, fit perfectly...
