Headlight Trim

So I recently installed the Relentless Fab Predator on my 2013 Tacoma and absolutely love it. I have been having trouble getting these under the headlight trim pieces to stay on though. I am not sure if it is related to the bumper because when I took it off for the first time it looked like some thick double stick tape was used to secure it on the side fender side. My truck did have a front end collision (like my first week of owning it) and I think the body shop might have done some lazy shortcuts to make it look good.

Anyways I am trying to see if anyone has any better attachment methods than the OEM green tabs.

Picture for reference.

 

Yeah, that little broken piece on the right side, the grey part of the fender, is supposed to have a tab there. Either they were paid to replace that piece and didn't, or just didn't realize it was broken. The trim piece slides on that tab and clips into the hole under the black trim piece

 

Do you by any chance know what that part is called?

 

Yes. That would be the entire driver's side fender. It's all one piece unfortunately. So check the receipt from the body shop and see if that was listed as a replaced part

 

This is the bracket I made to hold that trim piece under the head light.

 

Are you still using the plastic green tab or did you use something else?

 

@Horhey232 Yes, The little plastic green tab that is on the trim piece itself.

 

Yea I am curious if there is any better solution. In my case that was what kept popping out. I need to compare fenders to see how the tab is supposed to look on the fender that @Wyckedan is referring to.

 

So yea your tab on the fender is MUCH more pronounced and also I do not have that black piece that looks like holds the tab tight.

 

I was willing to make a bet you didn't have the black piece, that's why I took a pic of it

 

Now to find that piece lol
