Tip: if you take off the shroud above the radiator, you can reach down in from above and get some of the top clips.

Yeah I'm not sure why Toyota made the valances a gloss black but everything else a satin/flat black.

@tomsargent672 7 ай бұрын

What size drill bit should you be using for the license plate on the front? And I assume you should be drilling the holes from the inside of the valance? Don’t want to screw up that part 😂🤔🙏

Wow, is that how the TRD OEM skid normally mounts, with a bunch of loose spacers? What a pain it must be to install by yourself.... Totally agree that the matte black Valance looks much better than both silver and black OEM. Great video, by the way!

@yotaxpedition 11 ай бұрын

The TRD skid comes originally with 2 spacers. We had to add extra spacers due to the diff drop we installed but we might just remove that. Doesn't benefit you that much. Also, Thanks!

@Dlp1776 3 ай бұрын

The spacers are there because a front differential drop kit has been installed. That is typically used when a suspension lift is installed. Keeps the axles and ball joints happy. But yes the spacers are a pain!

@JMC2287 Жыл бұрын

Question Unrelated to the valance. After you took off the skid plate you took off another plastic piece. Is this piece necessary to have on when you have a trd skid plate installed. Thanks. Great videos.

When you install a TRD skid plate the plastic piece is not necessary.

Rear valance, easy. Pro grill install, easy (after having anxiety attach trying to detach clips near headlights). Front valance makes me want to throw the 4runner off a cliff. I don't know how on earth you get those damn clips off. I got like 3 of them. There is so much stuff in the way on the ORP and trying to single handed manipulate some of those clips feels absolutely impossible. I am just going to take the whole front bumper off at this point.

@yotaxpedition Ай бұрын

Lol. I feel your pain. After you do it multiple times it's easy. Front valance is tough with the bumper on but can be done in about 30 mins. If you want to take the bumper off, it will definitely help.

@matthsu2010 Ай бұрын

I did my front yesterday, I depressed the tabs with one hand and pulled with the other. Once you get the feel for it, it'll take about 10 min to pull them all out.

@Winterfell1066 6 ай бұрын

Would it just be easier to plastic-dip the rear valence without removing it? The front valence is so easy to replace, that is probably the way to go. The rear valence could probably be masked and sprayed on the car. Thoughts?

@yotaxpedition 6 ай бұрын

When we painted our valances awhile ago I was going to paint the rear with it still installed but then I decided to take it off to paint it. I found it easier to just remove it vs taping everything off.

@johnnguyen6859 Ай бұрын

I would just paint it black.

@@JattAnmoli same from the videos it seemed like there wasn’t anything there. When I got under I saw it and was thinking “there is no way” so I needed up removing the front bumper and rear bumper.
