    Wanting to add a Pro Grill to my Silver 2017 DC. 1st of all I was wondering if you could just get the center section of the Grill, because everything surrounding mine is Chrome. All my badging is Black. 2nd does anyone have pics of theirs done like this. Thanks A Lot!!

    You can't buy the center section separately. Someone did the TRD center with chrome surround. Also, if you've got safety sense or whatever they call it, you'll have a little modding to do there too.

    If you want to keep the chrome surround, you would just buy any color pro grille and swap the center inserts out.

    There are a few folks with 2018's buying the color matched TRD grill and removing the center section and replacing it with the mesh that came with their truck. I plan on doing the same in the near future. You may be able to pick up the TRD center section for a pretty good deal.

    Here's mine when I first installed my 1st pro grill with the chrome trim.

    Had it like that for a short time but decided to go color matched instead.


    Trying to give you 2 pictures from the same angle. What color is your Tundra? I think silver and white can manage the chrome trim best, but ultimately look better color matched.

    EE85300F-FDBA-4B1C-8C2B-1E73BB578621.jpg I bought the grille with the white surround and then just sold it with my old grille. It’s still leaves me wondering if I should’ve bought the bulge too, and just went white all the way around. But I just didn’t want to spend money because I know it would’ve left me wanting to do the bumpers well, then the headlights etc. There’s other things that I want more.

    My tip would be not get upset when you break one. It has a lot of clips.

    I don't know where you're located but I have a Pro grill insert and chrome surround sitting in my garage in Nor Cal waiting until I get 50 posts before I can post them for sale.

    Did you go with color match surround? I have a cement too. I'm also trying to justify bumper caps and whether I can deal with a little bit of chrome.
