Been on the fence about this mod for a year now and I think I’m ready to do it!

A before and after photo shot would have been nice, but awesome tutorial definitely!!! 😆👍

This looks way better than the high cut!

I did this to give mine a better approach without a strict aggressive chop .I think it keeps most of the bumper which I like.

Looks good, functional, and free! That's the best kind of mod!

Great video. Thank you. The wife is going to love this.

Thanks man. Very helpful video. I opted for cutting 2 inches below instead of one and it came out great but mostly cause of your video! Keep up the good work man.

Looks good,most people would never know.

Easy explaining.Good job

Very helpful, thanks for the video

How do you have the light bar mounted? I love that look! Could you do a video on it please?

Do you have a FB page or website with pictures of your 4runner after this mod? Would like to see some from the sides and further away to see the entire front end.

Brave using the Dremel. I have found them to wonder and make their own path... too scary for me on something i can't mess up!

Thanks for the video. Have you had any problems with the rigidity of the bumper in the time since you’ve done this mod?

This is what I wanna do!..still having that aggressive look

Thank you for this video! I love this cut! How did you go about covering up the exposed areas when you trimmed away the fender liner? Especially the passenger side where the washer fluid resevoir is located? Also, what kind of dremel/blade is that you're using?

Where did you get the white grill? I need this for my runner!

Nice process. How did you get the black fender flares. Are they aftermarket or painted

I know this is a old video but, what bit did you use in your Dremel? I don't know if mine has that one.

I did this Mod and it came out GREAT! Now I have my focus on a Snorkel. Looking at a Prado Snorkel, but trying to find information on the install has proven difficult.

Thanks for this video! The Viper cut seem too aggressive to me. This looks cut looks a lot like what I would go for. Now to have the courage to actually cut....

How do remount the remaining inner liner after cutting through it and off?

you could buy the rubber gasket from sso to clean up that cut as well

Great mod. Curious why at the end you bent the mount up to hide it. Why not just use a grinder and cut off the end?

Nice hat

Love it but would have added a black edge protector to bring the black finder flair color down... not to mention, leaving raw plastic and paint edge will eventually cause the paint to let go... Just a matter of time or a good edge hit that then will be tough to hide... Other than that, I love it & intend to do it. Thanks!

It looks like you painted your valance. What spray paint did you use?

You gunna put a lo pro bumper on?

Wondering if same could be done on 2017 Tacoma TRD? I also have the same 4Runner- did bummer start to make noise? And will this create problem if we go with full high clearance bumper in future??

Great vid. How did you do the Toyota logo on the white grill bar vs the black trd overlay?

So you cut the plastic wheel well liner allowing mud and water to splash into your fog light, et. al. Couldn’t you do this cut and reset the liner? The only fail I see with your cut angle that I like.

I change the title to 4runner high Clarence chop. Easy to find this video. Didn’t find this video just happen to show after watching bush wack fender installed

I really love how this looks, but I'm not a big fan of leaving the fog light connections wide open to mud/water/salt. Any future plans to maybe fabricate some plastic fender lining to keep those components covered up? The metal tab that was bent up could still be utilized. Thanks for the video!!

No before and after?

Question, I got a 5gen 4Runner, got bigger tires, it’s rubbing on the fender liners, what’s the best way and cheapest way to fix the rubbing? Level kit? Remove and modify the fender liners? Thanks

Where did you get the white trd pro grille from?

What type of fender flare do you have installed?

Who is coming up with numbering of stage 1 and stage 2? I understand mfg-ers can call their products into stages but when you do manual mod yourself by cutting it naming it stage 1 seems strange. Am i missing something here?

Go Knights Go

What dremel bit?

I like this idea, but it looks unfinished. Too bad you couldn’t add a small coping along the cut fron the black fender flare. The bending of the attachment point also looks like it could be better thought out.

Wish there was a template to go off of instead of throwing tape and hoping it’s straight lol

Did you notice any difference in road noise after the chop? I assume this can also be used to help rubbing with bigger tires.

I'm sure the cutting wheel would be fine to use.

"Too aggressive for my taste", didn't know there was such a thing.

6:04 really?

trim the cut with door trim and that'll look a lot more "finished"

Go knights!

looks good from a mile away I guess. And why the hell do you call cutting your bump a stage 1? nerd alert bro

Quedó hecho mierda 😅. A la maldita sea. Mal hecho los cortes y los detalles del guardapolvo cortado chueco 🤦🏻‍♂️ Ahora se ve todo lo qué hay detrás del guardachoque y los cables 👎🏽, ahora tendrá filtraciones de agua en los neblineros y conexiones eléctricas

The bumper of this Toyota 4 runner looks ugly

It looks very ugly 😃😃😃😃

no thanks.....I am happy with the Southern Style kit mainly because you now have zero reinforcement unlike the kit that adds it.
