Also if one wants to buy your full package for the aluminum skid plates, do they work in conjunction with the stock TRD aluminum skid plate? (I would hate to have to remove it).
I apologize for any grammar mistakes or misspelling; English is my second language.

An estimate is probably close to 40lbs additional to the front end after installation. The bumper and crash bar don't weigh much. Since the bumper gets cut there's actually part of it that remains on the truck anyways.
A full set of skid plates will replace the TRD skid plate. If ordering a bumper as well, we suggest the front radiator skid. As seen in the picture on the previous page, you'll notice about a 5" gap between a TRD skid plate and our bumper. If you're upgrading to all our skid plates we advise replacing the TRD skid plate as well as ours provides much more protection and will tie in with our front bumper if purchased. Thanks for checking us out!
