    I have an 2010 tcoma and have a chrome back bumper, I want a back one and checked with dealer and they wanted 700 for one. I was like omg lol. They charging that much for one. why so much. I even checked ebay and they wanted 500 plus shipping. Is there any aftermarket places that sell them cheap. or know of anyone selling one. 500 to 700 for one are insane. rip off. Thanks guys.

    Your paying for dealership premiums as well as being brand new. Can't say much about eBay.

    Thats true. The dealership is way to much.I was gonna plastic dip the bumper. I did it on my dodge ram ram bumper and it was ok but wasnt good. idk i not good at spraying things so but could do it. I would rather have a black one. I spent 25,xxx on the truck , i want a nice bumper not some 20 fix know what i mean lol.

    ok great. Thats what i needed. I'm gonna buy it this week. Is it easy to put the pastic stuff from the chrome bumper on the new black one?" I have never done it. I know that link had a steps to take it off but not to put the peices together.

    I had more of a problem with the inside corner reinforcements then the black plastic, but that is documented in the thread KPT posted. Fully agree with the take your time part though.
