2010-2013 Limiteds (or SR5s) with aftermarket front bumpers.
Long story short someone hit the front of my truck in a parking garage today. Luckily they actually left a note. They only damaged the front bumper. He wants to pay for the damage out of pocket, so I'm thinking I may take that money and put it towards a new bumper instead instead of repairing this one.
I'm hoping to see some decent resolution pics of peoples 10-13's specifically with the lower Limited side skirts/appearance package parts with non one-off custom built aftermarket front bumpers.

@ KVA
has the arb on his, maybe he has a photo to throw on here for you. That really sucks that you got hit, at least they left a note.

Garage usually means Cameras, would have been pretty easy to catch him in a hit and run if he hadn't left a note.

Make sure you still report it to 5-0. Id almost insist on talking to his insurance company. There's probably a reason the guy is wanting to pay out of pocket, and it may be because he doesn't have insurance. We need dicks like that off the road. Just me playing devils advocate.
That being said, feel free to take him up on his offer. The breed of bumper you go with is mostly personal taste, but bear in mind that the ARB is the only one certified to be airbag compatible - that was a deciding factor on my purchase. See one in person if you can - they get a bad rap because there's a lot of shitty pics of them out there, but in person they look pretty tits.

When I talked to him he said right from the beginning that he has insurance and we could go through if I wanted but he'd prefer if I got an estimate first and if the repairs are going to be less than his deductible he'd rather just cut me a check.
I'm thinking realistically it's between Shrockworks and ARB. I like ARB for the exact reason you said but your right, from what I've seen it's not all that appealing. I'd really like to see some of these in person.

Not to mention the difference in lead times goes hand over fist to the ARB...

Not just by a little either - I was quoted up to a year for the SW. I ordered my ARB on Thursday and it came in on Monday.

That may play a roll as well, ARB is cheaper and will come quicker. The Shrockworks looks so much better being lower profile (as in it doesn't stick out nearly as far forward as the ARB). But the ARB you have to cut up your bumper so there's no going back to stock without buying another bumper where as the Shrockworks come with filler pieces. The ARB looks to have better front end coverage though.
