Thank you for making this video. I was so jealous of the updated look of the 2014 and up models; I've wanted to update my 2012 for a LONG time, but was too busy to do the research on what I'd needed. This video was VERY informative. Finally my 10 year old 4Runner looks like NEW! Thanks again!
I just finished! I’m so happy with the new look. I couldn’t have done it without your video. My 2010 limited looks so more aggressive now! Thank you so much from California!
Thank you. Your parts list and light mods made it pretty simple. Bought a 2011 4R with fender/bumper/headlight damage and decided to do the facelift . Great video
Great job on this made this so much easier to understand with a video, i was a bit confused with the step by step from trail4runner on the bumper conversion but seeing you using a razor and basic tools to do this, I'm over her complying a list of buy a Dremel and other such things to tackle the turn sig so socket and liner portion, thank you for this i had the bumper sitting in my garage waiting to be installed
So glad that finally someone uploaded a more detailed video about the process!! Been stuck on the headlight wiring for a long time! Great work! Thank you!
Gotta say a huge thank you for the video walkthrough. I just got done doing mine and used your video as a step by step how to.. the online write ups help, but your video made a world of difference, especially with the wiring... awesome job!!!
Awesome! I just bought a 2022 TRD Sport and besides 17” TRD Pro wheels and tires, I will be doing this bumper mod as well. I like the Sport options, just not that Limited style bumper and 20’s.
Might do this in the future to my 2012 but I just bought some black housing trail edition lights im gonna ride out for a bit. Cool to see a fellow Wisconsinite with a 4runner channel. Keep the awesome content coming man! Subscribed
Echoing the thanks for posting this! Been researching the how to and gathering my parts list for the facelift on my 2011 SR5... and ran across your video. Was worried most about the wiring, so thanks for the very detailed walk through. Excellent video! Gonna do the scoop hood too?
Thanks! Yeah, I've been thinking about the hood. My hood is not in the best shape from the prior owner, so it's a good excuse to swap. You? Where did you or where are you planning to find one?
@@wiscoutsidelife Yep, going to replace mine. I've read some negative reviews on forums of fiberglass replacements, so am focused on steel. Discount Body Parts has the steel hood...www.discountbodyparts.com/details/Toyota/4Runner/Replacement/Hood/2014/REPT130105.html The scoop bezel grill can be found on amazon as a kit with the seals, but is about $150. Found just the bezel cheaper here www.oempartsquick.com/oem-parts/toyota-scoop-7618135902 But will need to locate the seals separately. Will have to be painted too. If you do it...you should do a follow up video. :-)
Hi, I'm trying to modify the bumper. I like this style. One question, why do I have to put another Bumper rebar Reinforcement Bar Beam? I am curious since I want to try to save as much as possible
I have a question, after replacing all that, would any after market steel bumper for 2014 and up will fit with the way brackets set up?? Also are the late 5th gen have the same shape fenders as 14 and up??? Thanks.
Is the same same impact bar used ? Looks different I didn’t hear you saying anything about it just a different one appeared unless I missed it . Thanks
All of my parts are just about here, I have one last question for you Were you able to reuse the center support for the (new) upper grill? Its the part that you point at @17:45
I needed new supports for the grille and bumper. There is a long center one and two sides. The video description has the full parts list and part numbers that I used.
The brackets and support bumper comes with the new bumper?..the head lights with brackes where did you get them, can you provide a list of all you need for the proyect, you' ve done an excellent work good video thank you.
The new bumper comes as bare plastic and each piece is purchased separately (unless you find a used front bumper assembly from someone). The parts list is in the video description. Have fun!
Were your new headlights the halogen or LED version? I picked up some 2021 headlights with the LED low beam (and halogen high beam) and was wondering what adapters and wiring I need for that?
I really need to know if the rebar can be modified, cut to accommodate the new bumper. Do you have any idea to reuse the original one? BTW: Thanks the awesome video, I've just purchased front and rear bumper to start this journey
@@wiscoutsidelifeI wish I could, probably it could be modified but the rebar for the SR5 might be needed for reference anyways. I ended up grabbing one off ebay. A tad expensive but I guess it’ll be worth it. I have all the parts now, so I might do it this weekend or the next one.
Great video man, this is going to be a huge resource for me when I start next month. A question for you- did the new rebar bolt up to the frame the same way the the old one did? You glanced over it in the video… I see some additional parts on your list that mentioned the rebar in their description. Can you shed some light? Thanks! Subbed!
Buying a used rebar usually includes the rail extensions and that's why it was quick in my video. Unbolt the old rail extensions from the frame and bolt up the new. I'm not positive if the pre-facelift rail extensions are the same as the 14+, but maybe others know so ask around. Good luck on the project!
I’m about to do my conversion next week this video will help out so much! Thanks for making this video man! As far as screws and bolts go, do I need to buy anything extra besides everything you mentioned?
At about 11:50 I mention a plastic grommet and screw for the headlight. I modified a clip that I had leftover from another project - I believe it came from when I removed the rocker panel and replaced with a 2014+ rocker. It works well. If you don't have something that will work, the actual part # for that grommet is 90189-05142. Other clips and screws I got from the original. Some are repurposed from other parts on the original, like for example the clips from the chrome strip work to hold the fog light bezel in the facelift bumper.
Ok, last question I promise! And thank you for the help thus far. In your opinion would it be possible to modify, cut down original bumper reinforcement (rebar) as I believe you called it or do I have to buy the new one? Can’t find one for new style for less than $320. Appreciate the info
That I’m not sure on. I know it’s what some people do when they convert from the 2014+ limited bumper so you might be able to do it with the 2010-2013 but I don’t know for sure.
On your passenger headlight bracket, the one you had to buy, did it ask if you have parking sensors or not? Also, what was the part number, if you have it. Thnx.
This thread had info about people who converted a newer limited to the TRD front end. There was a guy who posted the parts list of the difference between the two. It might help you compare what you need for the Limited and what is the same between the two. I do not think much is reused from the 2010 for a newer limited (maybe the rebar?). www.4runners.com/threads/2021-limited-to-trd-pro-front-bumper-swap.18332/
I ordered an OEM bumper from Toyota and had a local body shop paint it. I’ve heard the pre-painted, shipped bumpers have questionable fit and quality but I don’t have any experience with them. Maybe someone else here used that and can share some feedback?
Do you use the same bumper brackets on the bottom and just replaced the bumper bar? You kind of skipped putting that on so I’m a little confused if I need new brackets.
Hello Wisc, Is there a way to remove the headlight lens cover I was hoping that I wouldn’t have to replace the entire headlight for my 2014 4Runner, but I bet you’re gonna tell me that I will need to buy the full enclosure but either way I’d appreciate a response,,,,,,,,,, from anybody and thanks!
If you can find just the lens for sale, I have heard of people putting the assembly in the oven in order to separate the lens from the housing. But you can find a used oem headlight for around $100, so might as well go that route in my opinion.
@@wiscoutsidelife thank you sir but I was able to clean and polish myself it looks great now and I saved $200 plus instead of buying because there was nothing wrong with the lights itself only the film at top of light fixture!
Have a 2011 4 runner that needs a front bumper spoiler that is attached to the bumper cover you just replaced, I would have offered to buy off I you since you won’t be needing it no more , guess I’m a little too late
Not sure what you’re looking for but I still have some parts. If you’re looking for the underneath front splash guard, I do have that. The actual bumper is gone.
@@wiscoutsidelife looking for the spoiler that is attached to the bottom part of the plastic bumper cover you replaced for the newer model one , thanks for replying back
For the most part…there were some grille and lighting updates in recent years for Toyota Safety Sense and LED so you’ll want to confirm that. 2014 to 2018 should be just fine.
Do you happen to know what years are compatible? I just ordered a bunch of my parts but I got the bumper cover and headlights for a 2018 thinking they were all compatible through those years? Now I’m nervous
It was really simple. I went to an insurance-approved shop for the estimate. They uploaded the estimate to my insurance company and then I called the company to say I wanted to cash out and get a check rather than repair. They deposited the money to my account within a day (less my $250 deductible). I took the new bumper back to the shop to have them paint it.
You want to put on a 2014+ limited bumper? For the most part the general process will be the same, but different part numbers for some of the new parts.
@@curtisbauer9644 Okay, I’m just having trouble finding all the parts and stuff for my facelift 😂. So I was just hoping it was because yours was damaged.
Yes, people have swapped in this bumper on a newer limited. You’ll need a few different bumper supports and will need to chop the rebar or get the one for this bumper.
@@wiscoutsidelife okay, I figured so probably gonna end up spending a bit more, still it sure why they chose such an ugly bulky bumper especially for the most expensive model. Also do you know if after market steel/metal bumpers would fit the swapped TRD bumper, the same that they normally would?
I don’t know for sure but I highly doubt it. There are differences with the hood and fenders sheet metal. The mounting points and wiring might be different as well. 4th gen vs 5th gen.
Great video man! Question, someone is selling me his 2016 4Runner TRD pro does that one fit in my 2010 4Runner? He’s also selling me his headlights! Thanks

Just finished my conversation. Your video was very helpful. Thanks 😊
Just did my conversion following your video as guide, thanks for sharing. I also swapped the rear bumper, not the tail lights thought.
Did you only need the plastic bumper for the rear, or did you need other parts too?

Did you replace your bumper, or reuse the original? Not sure if new bumper cover works with original.
I replaced the plastic bumper, reinforcement bar and mounting brackets.
I am doing my bumper swap as I post this comment. Your video is extremely helpful. One question: Did your DRL work on the turn signal bulb?
Yes, DRL and turn on the same bulb relocated from the lower bumper to the headlight assembly.
@@wiscoutsidelife did you have to do anything to get the DRL to work? My turn signal works fine, but the DRL is not turning on for some reason.
I did not have any issues. One burnt out a month ago but no other problems.
I fixed it! It is working now. How hard was it to change the bulb? I noticed there is almost no space.
@@victorrosario5252 good to hear. Bulb change isn’t too bad….you remove the splash shield in the wheel well and pull it out from below.

Question!
Do all models from 2014 through 2019 share the same parts?
Example: if I find a 2018 front bumper and a 2014 grill it should work right?
For the most part…there were some grille and lighting updates in recent years for Toyota Safety Sense and LED so you’ll want to confirm that. 2014 to 2018 should be just fine.
Do you happen to know what years are compatible? I just ordered a bunch of my parts but I got the bumper cover and headlights for a 2018 thinking they were all compatible through those years? Now I’m nervous
14-19 for sure. I don’t remember what year they went to the new headlights but you will be fine with 18.
Did you have to do anything to the hood? Or did your hood not need to be replaced or modified for the conversion?
Not a thing on the hood. No issues with this swap fitting the old hood or fenders.
Nice video, I’m curious - how was the process with the insurance? I’m thinking if I ever get damage on my GX460 I’ll get a 2020+ grille instead.
It was really simple. I went to an insurance-approved shop for the estimate. They uploaded the estimate to my insurance company and then I called the company to say I wanted to cash out and get a check rather than repair. They deposited the money to my account within a day (less my $250 deductible). I took the new bumper back to the shop to have them paint it.
Do you have to buy the extension bracket that goes behind the crash bar, or can you reuse the ones from the original 4 runner?
I’m not positive you need the brackets. The current part numbers are the same so you might be ok with your current brackets.
Ok, did you use new one when you did the facelift?
Yes
did you buy that bumper painted black already?? i need a new one..
Bought from Toyota and took to a shop to paint it.
What kind of head lights did you buy and what bumper conversion? How much was the cost for parts?
Oem headlights and the trd pro bumper. Check the description for full list.

@@wiscoutsidelife Thanks again, about the bumper
Hey man thank you for making this video . Quick question , does this same process apply for installing a Limited bumper ? I have 2011
You want to put on a 2014+ limited bumper? For the most part the general process will be the same, but different part numbers for some of the new parts.
Hey, so once you swapped the new bumper, do you know if any aftermarket metal/steal bumpers will fit the same it would a TRD or SR5?
I think so. I considered doing a hybrid bumper. Same mounting points on the frame for those and then you don't need the rebar.
Did you have to buy a new rebar because of fitment or because the old one was damaged?
It is needed for the fit. I found someone selling a used TRD silver valence and rebar cause they switched to a C4 Lo Pro.
@@curtisbauer9644 Okay, I’m just having trouble finding all the parts and stuff for my facelift 😂. So I was just hoping it was because yours was damaged.
Do i need all of that if i have a 2013
Yes, you’ll need all of the same stuff.
Does anyone know if I can put this same bumper on my 2015 4Runner limited?
Yes, people have swapped in this bumper on a newer limited. You’ll need a few different bumper supports and will need to chop the rebar or get the one for this bumper.
@@wiscoutsidelife okay, I figured so probably gonna end up spending a bit more, still it sure why they chose such an ugly bulky bumper especially for the most expensive model. Also do you know if after market steel/metal bumpers would fit the swapped TRD bumper, the same that they normally would?
Someone else who has done it might need to weigh in on this.
Hi, is there a way to buy the all kit together?
Not that I’m aware of
Please reply can this work with a 2006 4runner??
I don’t know for sure but I highly doubt it. There are differences with the hood and fenders sheet metal. The mounting points and wiring might be different as well. 4th gen vs 5th gen.
@@wiscoutsidelife ok thank you
Great job . How much would you say was the total cost in parts ? I’m guessing the headlights were the most expensive part .
It was about $1600. The paint was definitely the most expensive so if you can find a bumper in your paint color it will save a lot.
@@wiscoutsidelife thank you
Great video man! Question, someone is selling me his 2016 4Runner TRD pro does that one fit in my 2010 4Runner? He’s also selling me his headlights! Thanks
Dude you’re lucky. That fits. Have fun
