2nd Gen Tacoma: Your favorite aluminum front bumper

Hello all,

I need to replace the front bumper on my truck sooner than I had planned (snow incident) but I don't think I've done enough research yet to know which bumper I really want.

I know I want aluminum plated to keep the weight down.

The 2 options I'm looking at closely are the All-Pro Expedition series and the Pelfreybilt. So far it seems the Pelfreybilt has a more gradual slope underneath, which seems like it would be beneficial in some situations (going up a short, vertical or near vertical wall of dirt). The pelfreybilt also has a provision for a 20" LED light bar built into, and it's about $100 cheaper.

I don't think I can go wrong with either option, but if anyone has any knowledge that might put me over the edge toward one or the other, that would be much appreciated!

-added a picture. As you can see it's not bad and definitely still drivable, but needs to be replaced.

Pelfreybilt for sure. One little thing is that the All Pro is just flat on top, while the Pelfreybilt conforms to the lines of a 12+. All Pro's bumpers were designed on an 05-11 and never changed for the updated body style. Plus Pelfreybilt has great customer service.
