This looks awesome! I might be down for this. Sorry if it was mentioned earlier, but is this going to be a direct bolt on or is there going to be a lot of irreversible modification necessary to get the bumper to fit?

Any update on this? Havent heard or seen anything on IG.

 

[Jacabbysal]

The other day they said they would post some pictures of the v2 during their Instagram live. It was also stated that it is not a priority and has been put on the back burner.

That was a few days ago so take what you will from it.

Been waiting for one of these! looks awesome so far. Definitely interested in one for my 2011 trail.

Good luck on the baby! Sleep when the baby sleeps!

 

[Beytill]

Stoked for this!

Just got a 2011 TE and am super excited to see this bumper see completion! Back burner or not, I want one. It just gives me time to do some of the other things I want.

Group Buy

Soooo...was there a group? Is there going to be another group? I just paid off the car loan and I can now modify my '13 T4R TE without worry.

They have not released the bumper. They have been busy with other projects and the bumper has been put on the back burner for now.

 

[Jacabbysal]

So as of right now I can not find any information on the hybrid bumper on their website anymore.

They actually converted their 4Runner to the 2014+ front on IG. Looks like it's another 10-13 DOA hydrid front bumper.

 

[Jacabbysal]

I guess the back burner has been turned off.

Needless to say it's been crazy but yes it's 100% still happening.
Files are finalized and V2 is DOPE.
It'll be end of summer more realistically.
I'm one of the biggest 10-13 fans. Heck we sell the majority of all the used ones on the market each month. No way is this project dying.... plus I'm in way too deep on the bankroll for this one!!!!

Sob stories aside, it's happening, it's still progressing, and it's still sweet!

Thanks

I want to believe this. But

• 0 updates for three months,
• deleting the 10-13 hybrid bumper page from your website, and
• converting your truck to 14+ front end (ew, by the way),

lead me to believe you're kind of saying it's NOT happening, without actually saying it's not happening.

He's so 10-13 nuts, he converted his truck to 14+!

What's the odds this is the bumper right here? The old one is behind it.

That is one of a few slimline bumpers that SSO made.

That's one of the C4 Fabrication prototypes. Another promise that was never delivered.

Someone needs to explain the reason for spending all that money on a prototype, but not at least trying to list it for a profit. Each part should be on a template, and its all hand welded. There are not industrial stamping machines making these in bulk. They make them by hand, and the cost reflects that.

I highly doubt an offroad automotive reseller has the time to mass produce a front center bumper. What other accessories/parts have we seen them produce to the masses? Does the original design or the V2 version even support a winch? At this point I would be happy to convert my SR5 to a preface Trail with a Budbuilt hidden winch mount. I'll try to be more optimistic guys sorry

I thought it was SSO, my bad.

Yeah it has a spot for a winch. They said you could get a 12k winch in there if I remember correctly.
