Does anyone know when we will start to see brush guards available?

Just wrapped up a two-week trip out West in my 4th Gen Tacoma, and it was also the first longer trip with the GFC V2 Pro. I started at Overland Expo Mountain West, where I was there working with Garmin, and from there I made a big loop through the Rockies: Colorado’s Flat Tops, southern Wyoming, the Grand Tetons, up to Bozeman (stopped by the GFC factory to get a latch pin fixed), and finally into Idaho for my sister’s wedding. The truck was pretty much flawless the whole way. No issues with power or comfort, and it handled highway miles and backcountry dirt equally well. I’m running 285/70R17 Firestone Destination MT/2s on Nomad Convoys, and they were a great match for everything from rocky trails to wet mountain passes. However, they affect MPG greatly, as I averaged right around 14.0 MPG the whole trip. The GFC V2 Pro camper made nights super comfortable, even when temps dipped into the 40s, I slept great. Just brought an old comforter and was warm enough. Setup and takedown were quick, which made moving camp every day much easier. Having a solid, insulated place to crash after long drives made all the difference on this kind of trip. Overall, I came away really impressed with the Tacoma + GFC combo. For a first big outing, it gave me a ton of confidence that this setup can handle just about anything I throw at it. I'm heading down to northwest Arkansas this weekend. Cheers!

I know the sensors and cams get super angry when developers have tried to fit new bumpers on. I'm assuming some of these awesome after market builders have solved these riddled by now.
I heard rumors Ironman 4x4 has one coming?
Anyone seen any pics of anything?
