Chrome Delete Covers for Tundra Bumpers - BumperShellz

Most of the nibbing and polishing happened today, so most of them should be on their way tomorrow.

 

Sorry about these mistakes guys! Brett, I believe your replacements went out today. Glad that happened because I hadn't been able to get on the forum until just now. @Spitfire Yeah, that was a dumb oversight that was easily preventable on our part. Very sorry about that! And we will get you a matching right side out ASAP

 

Is it too late to get in on a group buy? I want the front and rear for my '19 in paintable.

 

FOR THOSE WITH SENSORS:

On my 2014, once you remove the retaining clip on the inside of the bumper to free up the sensor. You can not pull the sensor out of the hole as explained in the instructions. The hole in the bumper is not large enough for the connector to fit through. So as @CCLJ03 wrote, you need to fit your fingers and do some wrist contortion in order to remove the clip.

THERE IS AN EASIER WAY!!!

Step 1: Remove the "white" (mine is black) retaining clip from the back of the bumper.
Step 2: Gently pull the sensor out of the hole as far as you can. It will be prevented from coming out by the female connector, don't worry. (see first pic below, This is about the amount of the sensor assembly that you can pull out).
Step 3: Look at sensor. The outer ring of the sensor is basically a plastic flange retainer ring with 4 clips around the barrel of the sensor.
Step 4: While gently pulling with constant pressure, use a small screw driver on each of the 4 clips. (see green arrows. Lift up the clips right where the arrows show.) The outer flange retainer ring will easily come off (see photo 2, The photo 2 is a pic of a Lexus retainer ring but the '14 Tundra is very similar. ) and the sensor assembly and wire can be pushed loosely back into the bumper. Put the outer flange ring aside.
Step 5: Install your bumper shells
Step 6: Reach back behind the bumper and locate the sensor and push it back out through the hole.
Step 7: Snap the outer flange retainer ring back over the barrel of the sensor. ( there an index notch so it will only go back on one way..).
Step 8: Place the sensor back where it belongs and reach behind the bumper and reinstall the clip.



Hope this helps save some scratched knuckles, contorting, and cussin'.

 

Sunset bronze in the mix?

 

Nice!!

 

Thanks.

 

mine was able to come out.. getting it back it was more difficult..

 

Please let us know when the second run happens. I'd love to get a front and back set of cement colored.

 

Where were you when we were hiring product developers? lol

 

We didn't get that many requests for it, unfortunately. So, for now, it's probably not a color we are going to run.

 

This group buy is closed, but we'll be opening them back up for sale after we finish getting the last OE color matched orders out.

 

Definitely getting a quicksand set next go round

 

I'm in for MGM if you do another run.

 

Color matched up good. Thanks guys for helping me dechrome. I did break one parking sensor- ran out of patients because it was really hot when I installed. I just couldn’t wait till morning

 

Awesome, where did you get the cement molding around the grill and hood from?

 

Sparks parts. There a vendor here

 

I've seen their website but can't find that part.

 

Give this a read: https://www.tundras.com/threads/ultimate-oem-toyota-parts-thread.10707/

 

Yeah you have to order a Pro model part. It will come with the pro insert- I didn’t use the pro insert yet but I may in the future if I get the relocation bracket for the radar.

 

Finally had time this morning... thanks to @EC1 for the awesome product. The color match is on point. And thanks to @CCLJ03 for the talk-on installation. The sensor going back in was definitely a finesse over force operation. Luckily I had enough patience not to break any...


Now I need to hit up sparks parts like @NorAZ to finish out the chrome delete. Thanks again everyone

 

Gotcha, thx for the info.....It makes sense. I like your honeycomb grill, mines the same way. Just love that cement trim around it.

 

Everyone still waiting for theirs in super white?

 

Did this last week.. pro grill going to paint shop

 

Those started shipping on Wednesday. We had to send a few back for repaiting for various issues that only happen because we're dealing with white. If your tracking isn't showing any movement, then it's one of those. We'll be picking them up this afternoon. They're using a fast drying clear coat so hopefully we can get them out today, but if they're not fully cured we'll be sending the rest out Monday.

 

All that I need is a rear set in Quicksand, so anyone needing front set only, holler at me!

 

@EC1 how are the silver sky units comn along?

 

Pretty sure yours shipped out yesterday. I saw a set on it's way to Beaverton, so either that was you, or you have a kindred spirit in OR. Most of the rest will be on their way today.

 

My Superwhites arrived yesterday. Hope to get them on this weekend!

 

That looks to be the set I ordered. Via ups website should be delivered on Monday!!!
