TRD skid plate for Canada

[GPTaco]

Has anyone purchased TRD skid plates from Garage 88 in Canada?
Curious about quality etc.
Too expensive to get anything out of the US these days.
Thanks

Yes, I have their skid plate. I like it. Seems to be good quality.

Mine was $560 as an option...I can't imagine what it cost to buy and ship it to Canada. Doesn't Canada buy direct from Japan?

This is what I bought - made in Canada was an excellent quality, great to deal with

My dealer wants $600 plus another $ 150 for the crossmember needed for Sport trim install. I like the black version that Garage 88 sells so leaning that direction.

I also have a sport, 2026. The crossmember was there.

Interesting, I haven't looked at mine yet.

From what I've read on here, it seems like Toyota added the crossmember on Sports in later years but the 2024's do not have the crossmember.

I've seen some TRD skid plate knockoffs on Amazon for $300 that looked identical. I'm not sure if they're available in Canada but might be worth a search.

I've seen some on Amazon but questionable vendor quality. Sadly my truck is a 2024 so I have no choice but to purchase the crossmember. I think the one from Garage 88 is my preferred option and they ship from Vancouver which is only 2-3 days to my door in Alberta.

I have the genuine TRD skid plate, bought from my local dealer for $769 all in. Is the Garage 88 a copy or OEM? If it's a copy...man it looks identical !! I like the black option too

It's a knock off im sure.
