2nd Gen TRD Pro Style Grille Insert

Well said!

 

They appear to be the cheapest seller online however they have the most BBB complaints and negative reviews I have ever seen.

Can anyone else recommend where to buy inexpensive inserts with lights? Prices on Alibaba/Aliexpress are comparable.

 

I got mine off of eBay. Different style but pretty happy with it. I decided to take out the raptor lights but it did come with them

 

Local dealership cancelled my order claiming they could not source it, and don't know how long, if ever, it will be in stock. Considering the age of the part I think Toyota may have discontinued the part.

I may have to rely on aftermarket (chrome/black) version and match-paint it myself. *sigh*

 

I bought paint matched RW grille. Insert came from Good Matchup. Gotta get rid of those chrome bumpers. I'll probably just run them over with sanding wheel, shoot primer on it, followed by can of paint.

 

Dang, what wheels are those?

 

Question, is the top slit removable?

 

I think it is. I can't remember, but I didn't have to remove it. Wheels are TRD PRO, if the question was directed at me

 

If you end up painting bumpers with good results definitely share how you do it!

 

And good looking truck btw!

 

Bought my insert from good matchup. Pretty sure viphi and other comparable websights are similar china direct sources. Better prices than alibaba with the shipping I was quoted. Just pay with PayPal. They will help if anything wrong happens.

 

How much did the wheels run you?

 

$1700, 3 years ago. They came with 2 brand new tires and two slightly used. GY 285/65/18

 

$1700?!! That's it?!!! Dang.

 

I need this exact grille someone please help me find one for sale! I’ve been looking for weeks!

 

Have you tried Google or Alibaba? You'll find the insert easily. Then you'll have to paint match your grill surround or order one color matched from Toyota.

 

I’ve legitimately looked everywhere, I can’t even find a place to buy a paint matched rock warrior grille

 

Sketchy site with bad reviews but takes PayPal. You can paint the surround or leave it black...

Okay, so I finally got the Rock Warrior grille and TRD insert.

How in the world do you take the insert off/out? The clips would not and does not flex! It's crazy how tight and little wiggle room there is. I don't know how you did it.

Any recommendations on how-to? Looked on Youtube and they all cried how difficult it was. One YouTuber said it took him 5 hours. Crazy!

 

Dang it. I broke one tab trying to muscle it off.

Screw it! I'm going to dremel the stock grille off the Rock Warrior surround. I won't be using it anyways.

 

I used multiple screw drivers the hold each tab in its pace as I worked around the perimeter. Dremmel works as well if your just going to chuck the grill anyhow.

 

Bruh, that's awesome! I want my CM to look like that!

 

I had the unfortunate event of hitting a deer on Saturday, thus, I need a new front clip along with some other parts. I've been searching through the forums till my eyes bleed, but I think I'm going to just go with this: https://garagealphaoffroad.com/prod...-trd-style-grille?_pos=1&_sid=189b5ba88&_ss=r along with the sequoia front bumper cover and headlights.

Slightly more expensive than just going back to OE style but comparable in price to going with the 2010-2013 Grille and a TRD Insert

 

Clearly I vibe with your pickup. Good looking rig brotha!

I was fortunate to have seen this up close (co-worker had one installed). It did not look good. There's a big gap on the side and the fit didn't look right. The material looked very cheap/thin. You can actually see what I mean in those pics.

No, thank you.
