    Folks,

    Of course, I don’t expect this to be exactly the same quality as a new factory oem.

    I’m considering this and was thinking if it was awful I could make a complaint to eBay right away, and get a refund but, this kit is cheap and has decent ratings. I was hoping to get at least one positive comment on the Aftermarket version before I buy it. Although, I’m not opposed to gambling since I can likely get a refund if it’s totally unacceptable.

    Still kinda pricey. The center bar looks a little different but I like it. I bet you can find OEM for less from someone who goes with a trd pro grill

    This part looks different to me, maybe just the photos I've seen

    I'll give you a small bit of advice reguarding that emblem....take it for what it's worth.

    I recently replaced my 18 Limited grill with a TREX billet grill made for the 18's and up, and that emblem is a nightmare to seperate from the existing mount and grill shell. Ended up breaking all the tabs and ripping it apart because evidently when I had my limited grill custom painted, the damn thing had epoxy over the screws holding it on. Dunno if that was done from the factory or the paint shop did it. But it's a mess trying to seperate the current OEM grill and transplant that toyota emblem onto another grill. Had to re-epoxy mine...will end up going with a 2019 TRD PRO grill now that sparksparts offers the grill shells in whatever color you may need
