2000 Front bumper end cap
I was shopping for front bumper end caps. My sport came with textured, but I'm trying to buy smooth/primed. I found a set online advertised as 1999 caps, but it says they won't fit my truck. Is this because my sport shouldn't come with painted covers?
Was there a difference between model years I don't recognize?

The 99 ones will fit fine. No difference.
What I have noticed is the difference in quality. I got a cheap set off ebay for my 99 and they are flimsy and dont fit great. I barely touched a rock with one and its destroyed. For my 01, I went with some from Crown. Way better quality. They are solid.
Also, between the 2, the Crown were so smooth they were glossy. The ebay ones were just kinda smooth and not glossy at all.

Thanks for the info.
Considering that this is an on-road project I have, and the ones from carparts.com are half the price of others i see, I think i'm going to give them a try. Nothing is wrong with the ones I have, but I'm going to be painting my truck soon, and I want body colored bumper end caps.
