    Why would the cops pull you over? For not having a bumper or the tailights? Cause they can't for not having a bumper. Those trucks came stock with no bumpers. They can't fine you for something that was stock.

    its is illegal in hawaii not to have a rear bumper. If I were to run a rollpan, I would have to weld a impact beam behind the pan. like a pipe or something. We also have a saftey check sticker that you renew every year, and they are strict about it. So I'll just weld a bar and put a rollpan sooner or later.
    I never heard of any toyota truck that never came with a rear bumper. If somebody rearends you, your bed will be smash really bad, whereas a bumper or some sort of impact beam would lessen the chance of severe damage. I guess:shrug:

    I replace one of my headlights, because of condensation on the one I put in. I got the other side waiting in the shop for me too. I like to have everything brand new.
    you setups finally done. looks nice. do your headlights aim straight? gotta adjust mine.

    Mmm...a lot of the Toyota & Nissan trucks didn't come with rear bumpers over here. Idaho doesn't have a law like that.

    yea they do, those lil adjuster pins/screws helped me do that. my driver side fender is a pain in the ass tho...i honestly think its like a quarter inch too short, none of the holes really lined up but i got it on there so im pleased until it gets time to perfect everything
