    hey tundra brothers and sisters, I have a 21 tundra and I purchased for my limited via my mains Toyota dealer part 76180-0c030-b1 and 53101-0c070-b0 and 53141-34010 magnetic gray metallic bulge pro grille and factory garnish. I replaced bumper ends with those from sparks painted at platinum spec those were alright quality fog lamp housings have play in them not solid parking sensors were difficult to install. My biggest problem is the bulge which says platinum doesn't line up to the pro grille, the lines don't anyway. Can anyone help ,e out with this? I also need a new center console armrest tray where it says sr5 or limited my wife's nails scratched mine all up thank you

    The lines seem fine. All 3rd gen bulges are interchangeable

    Are you sure you pushed the clips in all the way and tightened the screws down? It does seem a little forward but not much

    Definitely grill needs adjustment, check if you got grille's lower guide pins seated correctly

    I replaced the hood bulge over a year ago, and all the lines were pretty straight. Just this summer I replaced the stock Limited grill with a Platinum grill to complete the chrome removal, and with the new grill the lines don't match up quite right. All parts are OEM.

    I will say that I'm not real happy with that but realize these parts are just molded plastic and don't always end up the same, part to part. Overall my truck looks much better now and I've just accepted the imperfection and don't dwell on it.
