C4 Fabrication Hybrid Series Front Bumper for Toyota Tundra 3rd Gen

The C4 Fabrication Hybrid Series Front Bumper is a full-replacement steel front bumper for the 2022-and-newer Toyota Tundra (3rd Gen), built from 3/16-in laser-cut P&O steel with 1/4-in mounting and winch plates and 3/4-in fully welded D-ring tabs. It retains Toyota Safety Sense, parking sensors, and the factory front-mounted camera across all three bull bar configurations. Available in Raw or Powder Coat finish, with No Bull Bar, Low-Height Bull Bar, or Mid-Height Bull Bar with Tube Gussets.

Full-Width Steel Protection Without Sacrificing Modern Tech

The Hybrid Series bumper is engineered to keep Toyota Safety Sense, parking sensors, and the front-mounted camera fully functional after installation. For buyers who rely on TSS for daily driving and trail approach, that means no forced choice between steel protection and the truck's collision-avoidance and driver-assist systems. All three bull bar options are TSS-compatible; the low and mid-height bars will appear in the camera frame but do not block the full field of view. Because moving the sensors from their factory location can prompt a recalibration request, TSS recalibration at a Toyota dealership may be required after installation. Correct sensor orientation per the installation video and a level truck stance are important for reliable sensor performance. Forward rake increases sensor sensitivity and can cause intermittent alerts.

Lighting Ready Without Extra Fabrication

The bumper includes integrated cutouts sized for a 40-in single-row light bar, specifically designed around the Baja Designs S8. Provisions for two pairs of Baja Designs Squadron fog lights are also built in. LP9 pods fit all bull bar configurations except the Low-Height bar, though the bumper does not ship pre-drilled for LP9s. OE fog lights cannot be reused with this bumper. Having the light mounting positions engineered in from the start means no custom cutting or bracket fabrication to add trail lighting later.

Steel Skid Plate Included, Fender Liner Provisions Built In

Every Hybrid Series bumper ships with a steel skid plate that replaces the factory plastic unit, adding real underside protection without a separate purchase. The bumper also includes holes to reattach the factory fender liners, preserving the fit of the wheel well. Installation does require trimming the plastic bumper panels under each headlight and the ends of the fender flares; a detailed step-by-step video is provided. Raw-finish bumpers must be painted or powder coated before installation to prevent rust. Test fitting before coating is recommended to confirm alignment and fitment.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

The Hybrid Series Front Bumper suits 2022-and-newer Toyota Tundra (3rd Gen) owners who want full-width steel front protection while keeping Toyota Safety Sense, parking sensors, and the factory front camera operational. It works equally well for daily drivers who need TSS reliability and for overlanders who want integrated lighting and winch capability on the trail.

This bumper does not fit any Tundra generation before 2022. It is not compatible with the Smittybilt XRC 12k winch. OE fog lights cannot be reused with this bumper. The light bar cutout and fog light provisions are fixed features and cannot be removed from the bumper shell.

Common Questions

Will Toyota Safety Sense still work after installing this bumper?

The C4 Fabrication Hybrid Series Front Bumper is engineered to retain full Toyota Safety Sense functionality, including parking sensors and the front-mounted camera. All three bull bar configurations are TSS-compatible. TSS recalibration at a Toyota dealership may be required after installation, and sensors must be oriented correctly per the installation video for reliable performance.

What are the weight differences between the three bull bar options?

The Hybrid Series bumper weighs 160 lbs in the No Bull Bar configuration, 168 lbs with the Low-Height Bull Bar, and 174 lbs with the Mid-Height Bull Bar with Tube Gussets. All three use the same 3/16-in P&O steel body; the weight difference reflects the additional HREW tubing of each bull bar option.

What winches fit this bumper, and is a winch included?

The Hybrid Series Front Bumper accommodates most 8,000- to 12,000-lb winches. It is not compatible with the Smittybilt XRC 12k. A synthetic rope with a hawse-style fairlead is recommended. Some roller fairleads may be too large for the recessed fairlead mounting plate. A winch is not included with the bumper.

What lighting does this bumper support?

The Hybrid Series bumper includes a fixed 40-in single-row light bar cutout designed specifically for the Baja Designs S8, plus provisions for two pairs of Baja Designs Squadron fog lights. LP9 pods fit all bull bar configurations except the Low-Height bar, though the bumper does not ship pre-drilled for LP9s. OE fog lights cannot be reused, and lights are not included with the bumper.

Does the Raw finish need any preparation before installation?

Raw-finish Hybrid Series bumpers ship as bare steel and must be painted or powder coated before installation to prevent rust. Test fitting the bumper before coating is recommended to confirm proper alignment and fitment. The Powder Coat option ships ready to install without additional finishing.
