    That grill is part of an oem package. I believe the fiberglass side step and over fenders are included, not sure what else.

    Powder coat it a different color and stick and ebay TRD badge on it

    If the 2nd gen and a taco had a 1 night stand, the 1.5 gen would be the offspring. Not to big, not to small and it has an iron block V8. Wifey had trouble driving the 08 we were looking at

    Yeah I want to replace the shell around the grille as well. To me it looks like a fat stupid looking letter A. The paint is all messed up on mine as well.

    Gotta work with what ya got. I don't care for the regular tun grill, this is not perfect but I think I can make it work.
    Paint can says Black Stainless Steel but it looks grey, I ordered a TRD emblem earlier and I'm thinking about the lights

    Top 1 looks similar to what we have. 2nd looks good, does the listing have pics of it on the truck?

    That is a limited Edition OEM Darryl Waltrip grille. Those are EXTREMELY rare now. DO NOT cut it up. If it has an FMS logo embossed on the backside of it, it's an original.

    Those are both garbage. I've had both. The left one melted after a few months in the sun. The right one look so dumb I never bolted it on.

    The paint is messed up on it but other than that its fine. IF I decide to sell it, how much would you offer? It says FMS on the back.
