TRD Pro grille back order situation

I am curious on what a white grille painted blue would look like compared to a black grille painted blue. Seeing all those posts from other members already receiving their grilles when they just ordered them only weeks ago is starting to get frustrating.

 

Hey @Roman , I just talked to another parts rep at another toyota dealership and they said that they have been discontinued?? I placed my order on 6/5, is this true? Will we even ever get them?? Thanks in advance.

 

I've gotten three shipments in this week. They are NOT discontinued.

 

Isn't there a law against that? While they can make things harder to get, manufacturers have to produce the parts to vehicles something like 7 years after production. Right?

 

That is correct. They must produce parts for a particular model for at least 10 years.

 

another silver sky....

 

Well this is crap news...I ordered my Silver Sky back in April!....any longer and I'll be celebrating a one year anniversary of my order date...since they keep pushing the delivery date back...now October, from September, from June, from.....almost ready up give up...my $665+ is now somewhere in Toyota of cool springs bank account while I have nothing more than pushed back dates of delivery....almost ready to call it quits..

I want to cry...

 

I am excited ... just received an e-mail from Toyota of Cool Springs that my cc has been charged & the order status has changed from "back order" to "processing" on my super white pro grille & bulge set up. I hope this means I'll have a package arriving next week!

 

How long ago did you place your order?

 

Hopefully back in April...

 

August 22 but it's a super-white and, from what I've seen, it's the most common color with most availability ...

 

I like the sounds of that since I have the same color!

 

Placed my order for a super white Pro grille & hood bulge set up with @Roman on August 22 (after hours via Toyota of Cool Springs Parts website) and received notice yesterday that it's on the way! Scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Thanks Roman!!!

 

Congrats! You will absolutely fall in love w/your truck all over again after the swap..

 

Ordered mine in Aug. and got it early Sept. Couldn't be happier. Thanks @Roman Now on to the door handles.

1G3 color code

 

Ordered my grill no bulge last night and it shipped today!

 

Ordered mine about a week in a half ago and just got an update that it shipped!!

 

Really discouraging hearing all these people that ordered their grill weeks ago and they get confirmation that it's shipped already and there's ones out there that ordered months ago and have no idea if they'll ever get a grill

 

@dmeneses1983 What color did you order?

 

Silver sky metallic

 

Hang in there man, Super White apparently is an easier one to get ahold of. Black is one of the hardest to grab as everyone uses that as a base to have painted all the other colors of the rainbow. It will be worth the wait!

 

Yeah, I'm just antsy on how it will look. Maybe they'll be an influx that will come around xmas. Hopefully Santa comes through and delivers lol. Patience is virtue

 

That is the case. Some colors are harder to get than others. I don't know why that is, and it seems pretty ridiculous to me, but I'm just the messenger. I'm doing everything I can to make sure we get these in and out as quickly and efficiently as possible.

 

Any 1 getting the quicksand colored ones? I want to place an order but dont want to wait long

 

Omg $88 to ship? You have to be kidding me

 

I know it's pricey but the box is huge, and the items are very well packed. I believe shipping for my grill, bulge and color matched front bumper ends was around $100.

 

I get it's a lot of stuff but that's way too much. You can get mostly anything shipped for free or for just a few bucks these days. Even items that way hundreds of pounds. Someone who makes routine online sales can give a better price too. Seems like they are secretly price gouging but charging it under "shipping?"
But whatever if people pay it...

 

Are we talking Romans shipping? His prices with shipping for pro grill setup are lower for most people than local dealer for the parts without shipping. And he's actually getting people grills. Seems like a steal to me.

 

I typically look at the overall price. I was happy with the total I paid.

 

Might be because it's going out to me here in CA...
