    Awesome! Yeah those guys buy in bulk from us so you don't have to deal with customs and the shipping shenanigans that have been known to happen.

    Superbees.ca or bumpercovers.ca. they say authorized dealer so I figured it was as close to ordering direct as possible

    Same phone number, same products on both sites.

    It came to about $450+18 shipping Canadian for the TPO front and back. Not bad all things considered and our low dollar and Covid shenanigans with shipping from USA and not being able to cross border shop in person

    It actually may just be mentioned in the instructional video no that I think of it. There is a link to it on the instructions. Basically you sand down the springs on the back side of the white clip that holds the sensors in place. That gives you the extra room so it doesn't pull the cover so tight.

    Got my black tpo shellz installed today. Love the look. Can’t wait for the color matched grille surround and hood bulge. There was mention of a wait list? Is there something we need to officially sign up for? How do I do that? Because I really want the silver sky metallic version of those when available

    Those look good! You may have swayed me away from color matching when I get to that project.

    I'm going black instead of color matched too. Black & Blue!

    If my DIY Bed liner grille surround and bulge ever fails, I'll look into the overlay when available

    Just waiting on my TPO caps. Hopefully I can install them at an indoor parking lot here, as I don't have a garage and we are heading into winter. Unless it's ok to install them in the cold ( 3m tape etc).

    I was thinking about paint the grille surround and bulge black too, but I think that will be too much and wait for ecoological to come out with their color matched caps.

    Now I'm second guessing my MGM color matched I thought I wanted.
    The tpo matches the mirrors...

    yeah, I like the way it looks with the black handles and mirrors. the bumpershellz have a little more texture than the mirrors, but looks good with them anyways.

    @tonynw318 Has a pretty good picture of the textured black TPO a couple posts above you in #3091. Most people will go with that to match the center bumper because it is still a satin finish and has a stipple texture. I don't have any great pictures of the matte that I can track down at the moment. That is a smooth finish, so it doesn't have the texture of the factory plastic, but it still looks really good with it. The paintable ABS you only want to buy if you're planning on painting. They usually come pre-sanded so the finish definitely isn't something you want to leave un-touched

    Really struggling to decide between colored matched or matte black on a white truck. Leaning towards black at the moment as I think it’ll match the blackout on the rest of the truck. Any thoughts?

    You talking bumper caps? Or grille surround? I bent black tpo for bumper caps and will go color match on grill surround when they come out with those. I posted pics of my black tpo bumpershellz fairly recently if you go back a bit. If not, here’s one

    Yeah the bumper caps. I have the grille surround replacement arriving today. It was your pics I believe that made me lean towards going black for the bumper caps.

    As you guys who were around when we were developing the BumperShellz know, there is still a lot of work to do. We are going to be in the process of perfecting the fit over the next couple weeks and then we need to do all the programming, but we are getting close. I'll let you guys know time-frame for group a group-buy and all that stuff when we're a little further along, but it should be soon!

    This is most excellent news! So excited! I'm looking at my truck from my office right now. Now that I have the bumper shellz on, I really want to get the grille surround and bulge changed. Stoked about you doing this!

    Do the BumperShellz fit the 2021 models? Sorry if this has been answered somewhere in the post previously, wasn't about to go back through the 100 or so pages to find out.

    If everyone who sees this could respond to the new poll I just put up that would be great!

    We're trying to make some development decisions now that we have the bones finished for the Grille and Hood Bulge overlay. I'll continue to post different questions we have just to get all of your feedback, so your responses will be very helpful. Thanks guys!

    I voted black tpo to match the other pieces, but I'll be ordering a color matched option. The TPO would work in very well if that was the look I wanted.
