Default Front tow covers

Anyone know if the front tow covers for the 2006-2008 will fit a 2009-2010 on the bumper. Sewell has given me no responce.

Looks like the part number is the same for both the 2006-2008 as the 2009-2010 Part #52129b

I am a little surprised it looks like they dont come prepainted. I just looked on the sewell site under body parts if you wanna see for yourself to verify.

The reason why I ask is because Sewell has the 2006-2008 painted but not the 2009-2010. I just got a bumper from them and I wanted a new tow cover also.

They're not the same, different part numbers.

Contact Sewell, they can sell you the correct one painted, they do the painting in-house.

I would have to disagree the part numbers are the same so i'm sure they would fit the 2009-2010 bumper.

You're not allowed to disagree with me, haha.

2006-2008: 52129-53902
2009-2010: 52129-53904
2011-2013: 52129-53909

They're not the same part numbers.

I'm gonna side with Jeff Lange on this one. A big reason for me is because of the bumper revisions from 06-08, 09-10, 11-13.
