    My new-to-me 2020 SR5 CM has black out on the emblems. I just bought inserts for the tailgate emblem. I really like the look of the blackout bumpers and grill surround/bulge. However, I am struggling a bit with the price tag. I think if it were new, I wouldn't be so much, but well over $500 is giving me pause for a cosmetic thing. Few questions: Is Bumper Shellz the only "game in town" for those items (best game in town?)? Has anyone found any longer term issues with the covers (corrosion, coming off, etc.)? Anyone have pics of theirs - all black on surround and bulge?? TIA.

    Are you planning on ever getting a metal front/rear bumper? If so, skip out on the shells and just look into vinyl wrapping the grille surround and bulge. That's a much cheaper alternative. Or even vinyl wrap the shells too.
