tried the vinyl bottom

I like the look of this lower valence blacked out! I'll be doing this as soon as I get my truck back.

 

OR.... black bumper vinyl + XR bumper piece

 

Lol oh shit
i didnt even notice you had both.
if you had the vinyl....why would you put the xr cover?

 

cover up some imperfections... and a few ppl actually ask me if it came that way. So I guess it gave it an "OEM" look.

 

ah
gotcha
sweet man. did you have to screw the xrunner part on your valence?

 

Good idea!!

 

SWEET! Jonnysrt, I have seen the pick of your truck, and was wondering about that valance piece. I love the look of your front, and may do mine the same. Now I know how to get the valance done!

No sir. The XR piece comes with small hooks that latch on to the lower grille... pretty simple. I also added some 3M velcro behind it just for some insurance.

 

steveh: where did you get your xr valance piece? post a link or send it via PM please.

 

weird
what are the three bolt looking things on the xr cover?

 

awesome
thanks for the compliments James
Goodluck!
remember to take your time and have a buddy help you out when you install the vinyl.

 

I'll try to explain... The XR cover goes through the lower grille and 4 hooks latch on behind the grille.


Hope this helps.. kinda confusing, but once you get a piece, You'll know what I'm talking about.

 

I have A LOT of X-Runner friends.... lol I hang out on XRU and go to meets. I bought mine from a friend at a local get together.

Post in the "Wanted" section of the forum and I'm sure someone will chime in with an offer.

thanks
ya i see your four attachment points, but what are these three ? license plate mounts or something?

 

Ok now I get what you're asking... those are little dimples that come out of the cover. The purpose for those is to keep your license plate away from the truck.

I use spacers on my license plate and the dimples help it be level. I would prefer not having a LP, but TX HWY Patrol are D bags.

 

haha i agree on no LP
thanks man!
i always though they mounted to the valence w/the three dimples(with screws)

rep comin ur way

 

i think the way to go would be to get the x runner part and maybe just vinyl the bottom half...that way it takes away some of the complications of the wierd angles for the vinyl...wat do u guys think?

 

i actually think the oposite.
you will have an easier time applying the vinyl to the top of the valence then the lower portion. the lower pirtion has the dips in it.
just my .02

 

im afraid to try again

 

If you have the vinyl underneath, couldn't you techinically just slue the xr piece on? that way it will guarantee stay on and if you change your mind, you can just take the whole vinyl piece off.......just wondering......looks great btw.
