Front Bumper Trim

Are you freaking kidding me!?!?!?

 

I can confirm this. Toyota had originally told me that there was only one part number for that trim, the trim that they said I had to get painted. Took it to a local paint and body and the guy who I spoke to called one of his guys at another dealership and he had said that there is another part number for the OR one I was looking. Took it back and gave them the correct part number and eventually got the one for OR. The one for OR is textured vs the smooth matte one for the sport.

 

This also holds true for the fender flares. The OR ones are textured compared to the smooth of the Sport / SR5 / Limited.

 

Question.....I removed the grill and the 2 plastic shrouds and the 2 blue clips. Than i got all the clips undone all but the 2 on the very bottom (one on each side in the corners). Those 2 clips just felt different to me. Are all the clip that connect the lower trim panel to the bumper the same?

 

Yes they are the same. You may just need to massage it out a little more. Whatever you do, don't pull from the front. You have to massage it out from the rear. If you pull it from the front, the clips will get bent and you have to unbend them from the rear.

 

I plasti-derp'd mine black. The white ones took away from the S Trooper look.

 

i appreciate your help........

 

Did you have any problems getting it off? or did you derp it with it on?

 

Since Toyota doesn't provide a pre-painted Inferno bumper trim/insert and the Toyota body shop says an exact match may not be possible I'm thinking of going to black similar to the OR. Would this look out-of-place with the Sport color match fender flares and back bumper?? Would probably be more durable as well. Thoughts??

 

What would be the part number for the OR matte black piece?

 

I just ordered the textured black one. Call these people and they will help you out with the correct part number.

 

Brandon, what model are you putting on or replacing, and why? Damage or looks??

 

@foxfire27 just get the black one. Inferno and black is a good combo. That piece to me at least is sacrificial anyhow. Go off road in or anything and push long grass or whatever, it will get scratched. Save time and money and do it black

Makes perfect sense!!! Thanks Taco!

 

For looks.

 

Yeah, I'm warming up to the look finally. Coordinates with the black from the rear bumper.

 

Brandon, do you have a picture of the finished product?

 

I haven't received mine yet but it will look about like this one.
