    Wow the conversions you guys did was really cool and made the Limited look a whole lot better! I had a deposit on a '22 Limited since I like the idea of all wheel drive but the more I looked at photos of it, the uglier it looked. Too much chrome and didn't like all the extra plastic on the front, back, and rocker area. Ended up switching the deposit to an ORP since I can do without a lot of creature comforts I never use. And I figured that a Subaru is my daily driver so I already have an all wheel drive car.

    Would you happen to have a parts list for the front bumper cover swap (Limited to SR5/TRD)? I need to make the same conversion on my '22 TRD Sport. Thx!

    Hi TRDLYF, came across this thread and am looking to blackout the trim on my 2021 Limited. I see you blacked out the 2 front corners, 2 side lower running trim, and rear trim. I have been searching to just order the nightshade trim pieces to swap but I have found it hard finding them in stock and it’s going to be about 1K to do. I did find some black chrome vinyl wrap, but am wondering how hard it is to get those factory chrome trim pieces off. I think you said you had yours wrapped by someone, do you know if they removed the pieces before wrapping and how hard it was, or if they wrapped while it was on?

    IceMan600 - I too have a TRD Sport and about to dive into the bumper swaps. What did you do with the front camera? Any suggestions on how to navigate this with the new bumper I source would be helpful!

    Do you have the cruise control front safety sensor, and we’re you capable of keeping it with the conversion?

    Does your limited have TSS, and if so we’re you capable of converting it to the TRD pro bumper?

    Did you have any difficulty with the TSS converting it to the pro bumper?

    Mine didn’t have tss. But if it did, it still can be converted. Just need a lower grille which is compatible with tss. The 2023 trd pro has tss. Just need thst lower grille.

    Did you ever get an answer to your question on blacking out the chrome?

    I did it through Cartrimhome.com

    Free Shipping Front Bottom Bumper Lid Cover Strip Trim 3pcs For Toyota 4Runner Limited 2014-2023 (cartrimhome.com)

    If you look on their sight they have most of what you need for the front chrome blackout overlays. I think i bought one item from 4runner lifestyle.

    I hope this helps.

    @Phishmonger where did you purchase the new bumper from? Junkyard or online?

    Has anyone done this with the 2023 limited? Thinking of doing so but understand there are some nuances. What’s the best starting point for knowing what the right parts are? Thinking of adding a steel bumper as well instead of the plastic bumper.

    I just bought a Trd-SR5 style bumper for my limited and am planning to do the conversion this weekend I just wanted to know if there’s any extra steps I’m missing like different clips or attachments etc?
