Chrome Delete for Rear Bumper

Looking for ideas to delete the chrome rear bumper pieces on my 2018 OR DCAB in magnetic gray metallic. I dont have any automotive painting skills, so recommendations for products that I can purchase paint matched would be most helpful. Thanks!

 

There's caps you can purchase to delete the chrome. Some places will have the color matched ones.

You can find a lot on ebay cheaper and seems people are happy with them.

 

i have a set of black ones for sale, the ones with sensor holes. i'm in DFW.

 

I painted mine with truck bed liner over 2 years ago. Still look as good as day one. All I did was give them a light scuffing and spray away. As a bonus the texture is nearly identical to the black plastic part of the bumper.

 

Go for the caps... looks best but a little difficult to install. You can find them cheap. Got these at carparts.com for $48.

 

Did yours come painted?

 

Yeah it's like a textured black... nearly matches the bumper perfectly. THese are replacement caps btw... you remove the chrome ones.

You can find paint matched ones but they are usually a lot more $$$.... Army Green was hard to find.

$196 Bundle Painted 4V6 Quicksand Rear Bumper End Set W/O Sensor Hole For Tacoma 2016-2023 TO1104133 TO1105133

got these for my bday and the color match was spot on... however, one of the corner brackets was busted so I had to send them back.
Ill post pics and install quirks when I get them on .

 

Spray can of plastidip. slight scuff and good cleaning prior to painting.
Its been 3 years and mine look great.

 

my bumper didn't come with any chrome

 

I didn’t see my color, so I sent that vendor message asking if they had them in my color. #fingerscrossed

 

Great idea, but I wanted to go the paint match route.

 

Those look great. I was going to tolerate the chrome but might give these a shot.

 

Just did mine! Best $60 spent!

 

Okay

 

I painted mine

 

Found some paint matched ones on Amazon. Pretty easy install, I removed the entire cap to get the claw clip off the back.

 

Got mine installed last week...comparison.
So much nicer.

 

Go to both these sites below and grab some exact match color, I always price match between the two, done business with both. This would be a good little project to take on this winter. Scuff up the chrome, etching primer, paint and clear coat.
