In my experience (I've seen a TON of bumpers and grilles come through here!), aftermarket plastic parts tend to have really nice chrome- as good as the factory, and in some cases you can get them in all chrome instead of chrome/ black.
Bumpers, however, are another story. The chrome is fine in most cases, but the prep that goes into the raw bumper is key. I've seen them with huge gouges that have been chromed over, pitting due to oil or other contamination... it's really hit or miss.
I would recommend ordering your bumper through the dealer if you're looking for the highest quality part. But make sure you open and inspect it at the dealership when you pick it up, because Toyota uses aftermarket companies for their "phased out" models like your Taco.
But save money and buy the grille from us or someone else that carries it!
