Front Bumper with sensors and radar replacement

Good Afternoon
Happy New Year!
I have a 2019 Toyota Tundra SR5
All the aftermarket front bumpers have a disclaimer that they don’t work because of the front sensors, parking sensors or the radar behind the emblem.
Does anyone know of a compatible heavy duty bumper that is?
Thanks for responding
Dave

 

I have this one on my 2018 and no problems with the radar.

Thanks, I sent a email to the local dealer and I will let you know how I make out.

 

This bumper has sensor holes and doesn't affect the radar sensor behind the emblem.

Just to clarify my pickup has the radar only. You would have to drill your own holes for the small sonar sensors.

 

Yes my truck came equipped with blind side monitoring and front sensors in the front of the bumper.
I have looked at the Rough Country also but they have this disclaimer.

• Not compatible with Blind Spot Monitor feature available on select models. Must disable feature to install bumper.

So my search continues!

 

Where are the BSM sensors on the front of your truck? If i am reading correctly, you have the 2 round sensors in the bumper for proximity and you also have BSM sensors on your bumper? Pics would help.

I have this bumper. Just installed a week ago. Works with radar as well as has holes for sensors.
Pic of it on my truck.

 

looks nice, would you need to remove the bumper to replace headlights or headlight bulbs? Not sure how you would be able to remove the grille, lights, etc for maintenance.

 

Headlights or bulbs I believe you could. Grille I’m not sure about. Here a few pics from the side and looking down to show the room between the grille, headlights and bumper.

 

I’ve had a fab fours matrix bumper for a over a year now with no issues with the sensors or emblem radar. I have the one without the bull bar.

I wouldn’t buy a bumper and attempt to drill the sensor holes myself. The holes aren’t perfectly round and you won’t know exactly where they should be or point.

I’m pretty sure the bsm is in the mirrors. I lost bsm when I switched to tow mirrors long before I changed the bumper.

 

Hey I'm looking at this same bumper for my truck but my truck currently has a 2” hitch receiver mounted on the front. It attaches to where the tow hooks go. Do you think I would be able to keep the hitch receiver installed with this bumper? Also are there any witch mount options available for this?

 

I’m not sure. I got rid of my Tundra 6 mons ago and can’t remember if you would have enough room for the hitch or not. It’s a great bumper though.

 

Thanks for getting back to me I appreciate it.

 

BSM is only on the rear bumper.

 

This is the first time I've ever posted to any forum. I hope some of you find this useful. I recently purchased a new 2023 Tundra. I do love it. I replaced the front bumper with a Fab Four Matrix. VERY EXPENSIVE, but I like it. I had the same problem many of you had with parking sensors. I was VERY displeased. The installer said they were going to call the manufacturer to figure out why. To me, the reason seems obvious, the bumper is too thick for the clips that hold in the sensors. While I have not heard back yet, I decided to try to try to fix the problem myself. I pulled each of the sensors and remounted them.It seems to have worked. Fingers crossed. I don't know what I did different from the installer - besides pray.

A second comment I would make is I would suggest to Fab Fours is just to the CBI Air Dam Delete module and just forget about modifying the air dam motor to lie to the truck. So much easier and you can just remove EVERYTHING associated with air dam.

Just my $0.02.
