For the conqueror in every truck, Jeep or SUV owner, the ARIES grille guard offers the tough, trail-ready look you demand. It begins with a one-piece frame of 1/4" thick welded plates and 1-1/2" mandrel-bent tubing for a solid build. Each one is made with a vehicle-specific design for a better fit, easier install and more secure mounting. The side brush guards are custom-bent to contour to the profile of your vehicle, while the mounting brackets are positioned for a no-drill application. This means pre-existing factory holes are used to ensure optimum fitment and less vibration. This particular custom grille guard fits specific years of the Toyota Tacoma (see application info to verify). The ARIES grille guard also makes it easy to customize the look of your vehicle. Not only does the crossbar have two pre-drilled holes for mounting aftermarket LED lights, but many of our grille guards are also available in two finish options -- polished stainless steel or semi-gloss black steel. The stainless steel grille guard is made with 304 stainless, being high in nickel content and truly resistant to rust and corrosion. This option comes with a mirror-like polished finish for a definitive shine. The semi-gloss black grille guard is made with high-strength carbon steel for added strength. It features a tough, dual-layer E-coat and black powder coat finish to protect against rust, scratches and the elements. All ARIES grille guards also come with rubber stripping along the risers to protect the frame against scuffs and scratches.

The ARIES 2054 1-1/2-Inch Black Steel Grille Guard, No-Drill, Select Toyota Tacoma (Part #BBDR2054) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, the Curt 2054 and 2054-2 grille guards are designed for 2005-2013 Toyota Tacoma models. If your vehicle is equipped with a factory skid plate, it must be removed before installation and will not be reinstalled.
The factory skid plate must be removed before installing the grille guard. The skid plate will not be reinstalled after removal. If your vehicle is equipped with one, plan to remove it as part of the installation process.
The kit includes: 1 grille guard, 2 frame mounting brackets (driver and passenger), 2 top brackets (driver and passenger), 2 10mm x 30mm T-bolt plates, 2 12mm x 120mm hex bolts, 6 12mm x 35mm hex bolts, 2 10mm x 30mm button head bolts, 2 10mm x 30mm T-bolts, 16 12mm x 32mm flat washers, 4 10mm x 27mm large flat washers, 8 12mm hex nuts, 4 10mm hex nuts, 8 12mm lock washers, and 4 10mm lock washers.
No. The manual explicitly states: 'Do not attempt installation alone; personal injury or damage to the truck may result.' You will need at least one assistant to help position and secure the grille guard.
Yes. You must open the hood to access the factory holes on the bottom of the radiator support cross member, which are used to mount the top brackets.
Reuse the three factory nuts that originally secure the bumper support to the end of the frame channel. These nuts are removed in Step 2 and then used to bolt the frame mounting bracket to the threaded studs in the frame channel in Step 3.
Install in this sequence: (1) Remove factory nuts from the bumper support on the driver side. (2) Bolt the driver-side frame mounting bracket using the factory nuts and add the lower bolt. (3) Repeat for the passenger side. (4) Open the hood and insert the T-bolt plates through the radiator support cross member. (5) Attach the top brackets to the T-bolt plates (do not tighten yet). (6) Position the grille guard and bolt it to the frame mounting brackets. (7) Bolt the top brackets to the grille guard uprights. (8) Align and tighten all hardware.
Leave loose until final alignment: the 10mm fasteners connecting the top brackets to the T-bolt plates (Step 6) and the 10mm fasteners connecting the top brackets to the grille guard uprights (Step 8). Tighten the frame mounting bracket hardware immediately after installation (Step 3). Align the entire grille guard and tighten all hardware in Step 9.
With assistance, position the grille guard onto the inside of the mounting brackets. Use 6 of the included 12mm x 35mm hex bolts, 12 of the 12mm flat washers, and 6 of the 12mm nylon lock nuts to attach the grille guard to the mounting brackets. Refer to Figures 2 and 3 for positioning.
Open the hood and locate the factory holes on each side of the bottom of the radiator support cross member behind the grille insert. Insert one 10mm T-bolt plate through the back of the cross member and down through the hole in the bottom. The T-bolt plate is then used to attach the top bracket using a 10mm flat washer and 10mm nylon lock nut. Do not tighten at this stage.
Line up the mounting hole in each top bracket with the corresponding hole in the upright on the grille guard. Bolt each top bracket to the grille guard using one 10mm x 30mm button head bolt, one 10mm flat washer, and one 10mm nylon lock nut. Do not tighten at this stage; tighten after aligning the entire grille guard in Step 9.
After installation, perform periodic inspections to ensure all hardware is secure and tight. The manual recommends checking the installation regularly to maintain security.
Wax the grille guard after installation. Regular waxing is recommended to add a protective layer over the finish. Do not use any polish or wax containing abrasives, as these can damage the finish. For stainless steel finishes, aluminum polish may be used to polish small scratches and scuffs, and mild soap may be used for cleaning. For gloss black finishes, use only mild soap for cleaning.
The Curt 2054 and 2054-2 grille guards fit 2005-2013 Toyota Tacoma models. The factory skid plate, if equipped, must be removed and will not be reinstalled.
At least two people are required. The manual states: 'Do not attempt installation alone; personal injury or damage to the truck may result.'
The manual does not specify which tools are required for installation. Contact the manufacturer or an installer for a complete tool list.
