Yes it is. If I did it again I'd cut a Limited bumper skin instead. Neither the Demello or the SW fill plates are a perfect fit. I believe Demello stopped offering fill plates for exactly this reason.

Just put some white duct tape over the gaps. Problem solved, perfect fit.

Unfortunately I got into an accident not too long ago. The other car was totalled out, but fortunately my Demello bumper saved the rig from a whole lot more damage. Everything was fixed, and I have another front bumper on the way along with my CBI rear.
Haven't gone anywhere nice for a while, guess this thread deserves some poser shots.

I was just lamenting to myself today about the lack of updates on this thread. Glad nobody was hurt(nobody was hurt, right??)
Any pictures of the crash damage? Everybody likes to see crash damage...especially when an armored bumper is involved!

Thanks guys! No one was hurt. I won't share any photos of the other vehicle but it fared a lot worse than the 4Runner.
Damage was relatively minor on the truck- just a new headlight and fender and a hood respray. Insurance also wanted me to replace the front bumper before they started the repairs since it's aftermarket. I thought this was an odd request since the bumper seemed fine except some missing powdercoat but I obliged. I got a good deal through Mark on a SW so the Demello will be up for sale soon.

The damage to the powder coat looks like it belongs there in those photoshoot. =)
