How exactly does this guard go on with the stock bumper?

If you guys can provide pictures of your 4runner with custom guards, bulp bars etc. or this one that would be nice.

Can only assume drill holes and try to attach it to the top of the "lip" on 99+ bumpers. Pre-runners are the 2wd Tacomas I don't know if it's meant for a 4runner. Seems pretty half-baked in conception to put it mildly and can't see it being anything close to a good idea tbh. Unless there is a seperate Warrior bumper you are meant to install first to attach to?

All I've ever heard about about those kind of brush guards is they make the damage worse if you hit anything other than you know, brush. They get pushed up in to the radiator and such. The legit ones are expensive unless you can weld, which I why I still have the original bumper after many years. House repairs or other stuff always happens instead. You also have to be very careful about how you bolt it to the frame if you plan to use it for winching or anything like that.

Are you sure that is for a third gen 4runner? That looks like its meant for a 4th or 5th gen judging by the curved shape

What an excellent way to destroy a bumper and damage your hood
