Hey M. The Westin HDX Modular Grille Guard with Punch Plate item # W97NF weighs 101 lbs. This is custom fit for a 2023 Toyota Tacoma and includes all necessary hardware and brackets.
It will slightly affect your gas mileage. This is due to a combination of weight and drag. I've got one on my truck and didn't notice anything.
Do you need a grille guard because of wildlife or brush, or do you just like the way they look?
