    I like it a lot. I am interested to see the contrast of the ambers on the front of the Pick-up will look like.

    I was thinking the same thing!

    That is sexy.

    Did you have it painted at a shop or on your own OP?

    I basically took the same idea but color matched more of the inner Grille. I think it looks a little richer. And color matched the emblem as. well

    Thank you .. just a word of advice for anyone who may consider doing this. You will have to find a old used Grille and swap the bottom support bracket on to this one. Unfortunately I found out that hard way Toyota does not make one to purchase separately. Just a heads up. The 07 to 09 bracket is a different size and will not fit. The bracket from 2010 to 12 needs to be used

    Damn that looks perfect. It looks like a better factory version. I just bought amber led marker lights to do the same idea. I had no idea oh could just buy a grill and toss the Toyota on it. Looks awesome. I also like how the top fake grill opening is deleted. Looks cleaner imo

    Pics to come.... I just picked a used grille up off eBay just to get the bracket I need :mad: Then I can finally mount it. Of course I still have to wire the lights up as well.
