    I have just over 30,000 miles now on my 2019 Tacoma TRD Sport, and it is because of a lot of highway driving. Because of that, the middle front section of my bumper had gotten chips on it that I just despised on what I still consider to me a new truck. Also, even though my bumpers came color-keyed to match the body color, I have seen other models where the middle front section is black. I liked that, especially with the color scheme of my truck. SO, I ordered a replacement front middle bumper section from Discount Body Parts in Chicago, for only $75. It comes primed in black. I was tempted to leave it like that, but decided to spray black plasti-dip on it since it was primed. It came out great! I swapped out the bumper sections this morning, and I have to say that I am happy with the result. I just wanted to share the after and before pics with the group, as you guys here have been so helpful to me in the past when I had my old 1996 Xtracab tacoma!

    Mine came with the black bumper. At one time I had considered color matching it to the truck, but decided not to.

    Thanks for confirming that I made the right choice. :thumbsup:
