Painted Bumpers for XE only?

motox214 · Apr 12, 2008

So most who have been reading my posts know that I am shopping for a Crew Cab LE that I plan to buy next week and lift it and what not.... But what I am now wondering if the painted bumpers are only for the XE model? This may sound funny, but I would prefer the cheap painted plastic bumper over the LE chrome bumper. I like the one tone look! So when I get my White LE, what will be the easiest way to go about getting those sweet white bumpers or covers or whatever they are! Thanks again for putting up with all my questions this week!

Thanks!

When I bought my truck I wanted the painted bumpers as well. I was told my choices were either the XE or Pro 4X.

I'm with you, I'm not much of a chrome person myself. I just think its to much chrome on the front of the truck. That's JMHO. Not sure where to get your painted front end, but good luck to you on that.

There's always someone willing to swap bumper.

I would swap, but mine is the wrong color.

I ran this through my dealer the other day. 700.00 for painted front bumber installed. 650.00 for the painted upper grill insert installed!!!

Would be cheaper to see if someone can actually prep / paint it..

I want my truck one color as well

HAHA I have been looking for a galixay black bumper for some time now and cannot find one. Better off getting the pro 4 package!

Mine is LE Radiant Silver. Also wanna get rid of my chrome bumper but keep chrome grill. I really want the Pro4x bumper because the fog lights are shaped differently than the XE. If anyone wants to trade Radiant Silver bumpers from a 08 LE for painted ones off a Pro4X. Let me know. ( Am I asking for too much?)

A pro4x, SE, and LE bumper is stronger than an XE. My suggestion, paint your existing bumper.

915titan · May 11, 2009

Really? Is it possible to paint the chrome section? Will it last or eventually peel? Hmmm... that is a new option.

I have an XE and had a pro4x installed. beware the pro bumper is about 480 and the grill is 230 give or take

915titan · May 12, 2009

This will probably be the best bet here. I thought it was gonna cost a hundred million dollars..... 480 is worth it for a sportier look.
I love the contrast from color to chrome like this...

Yeah someone always wants a swap. Nissan, you hear us?? Some of us want color matched bumpers on our SE/LE trims!!

twistedfreedom · May 12, 2009

The all black truck is mine 08 XE with Pro bumber and grill

twistedfreedom · May 12, 2009

It only looks like a matte finish because it hasn't been washed in months.

Very nice...
