Raptor R front bumper piece

[Charbert]

Is this part I have circled a separate piece or part of the bumper assembly? I like how it is black on the R and wondering if I can just swap it onto my non R. If so, would there be a part number for it that I can order it already in the black, or does Ford paint this? Can you order the sensors in black too?

PS, not my truck. Saw it at the shop doing my level kit for 37's.

Its the same one as on non R Gen3. Its not only black but the paint line is lower closer to the skid plate. Just paint yours

I plastidipped mine along with the skid plate, I’ll see how it holds up but I definitely like the black better.

Did you paint it on the truck? Spray or brush? If so, what did you do to mask off the other portions?
What color plasti-dip?

looks great.

Thanks! Matte black plastidip, I used almost 2 spray cans to get a few coats on both the bumper and skid plate. I removed the 3 lower portions (the lower grille and plastic piece on either side) they are just held on with push clips. Everything else I just used blue tape.

did you plasti dip the parking sensors as well? do they still work?

Yup they work fine, not sure if a heavier coat would affect them or not. Could always peel that small section off, you would just have silver “dots” in the center.

How’s the plasti dip holding up so far?
