2nd Gen TRD Pro Style Grille Insert

Yep, thanks! See my build thread here: https://www.tundras.com/threads/2010-crewmax-limited-“asphalt-warrior”.57659/

 

Rob, it looks like the stateside grill inserts are out of stock. Know of any other places to order them?

 

From the source! https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/2010-2013-Truck-Front-Grille-Fit_1600128165806.html

Don’t forget to haggle on the price. Got mine shipped to ATL for $160 total.

 

Thank you! It doesn't come with the Toyota lettering? I assume when it says "pieces" it means quantity?

 

Yes, pieces is quantity. They had no issue selling me a quantity of 1. It does come with the Toyota letters.

 

Got one ordered. Tips on separating the grill insert from the grill surround? I guess there are lots of PITA tabs? Thank you.

 

Use a couple of flat head screw drivers. Pick a starting point and work your way around separating the tabs. When you get a small section done, pull the insert away from the surround to create a little more separation, and move on to the next section. Hard to describe, but you will get a feel for it.

 

I'm thinking about buying one of these, just curious as to how much you'd want for the 3D printed cover. I can't deal with the shiny fake TSS sensor

 

On second thought, to those of you who have this grille, what do you think about masking off the sensor and putting a few coats of Night-Shades spray on it to subdue the overwhelming appearance of the fake sensor?

 

That looks awesome. Do you have a link? I need to get a white surround too. Any good tips for that?

 

Link was posted by OP. It’s from Alibaba.

for color surround, get a Rock Warrior grille from Toyota. It’ll come color matched to your paint.

Edit: since you said white, here you go- this is the part number.
531000C240A0

I got it from a Toyota dealer for $170 shipped.

 

I’m also thinking of going this route.
Are you mass producing that sensor cover part yet. Please let me know

Thanks!

 

$170 shipped? Now that’s a deal haha
Mind if I ask which dealership?
I paid $223 shipped

 

Wondering if this is the same grill insert the OP got from Alibaba. Please any info would help. I can’t get Alibaba to respond to an email so searching out US options.

I’m not mass producing them, but I can print more upon request. PM me and we can work out a price.

Nope, that one is for a 2014+ truck. I haven’t seen the one for our trucks anywhere but Alibaba yet.

 

Once they do get back to me I will be hitting you up for a 3D insert

 

McGeorge Toyota. I think they’re out of VA

Thanks! I’ll have to check them out next time I search OEM parts.
In the meantime, still waiting for my grille surround. Decided to wrap the glossy TSS piece with some matte black vinyl like another member did.

 

Has anyone tried this piece from the taco grill? I’m not sure the dimensions will fit the grill where talking about but the pattern seems a bit off

 

looks great, can't wait to order mine, looks like theres another seller with a little different piece, blak/grey instead of that color you got.

 

Edit: Also very interested in version 2.0 from the 3D printer


Got Alibaba down to $70 + $75 shipping to SoCal. I’m trying to get them to let me pickup in LA (Los Angeles) warehouse. If I can pickup I’m thinking about grabbing 5 for the marketplace. Can I post them for sale here if all works out?

 

i am down for one, not sure how you got it that cheap but sign me up.

 

I tried to get one of the sellers from Alibaba to get the shipping price down (I'm in FL) but they weren't budging so it was coming out to be over $210 when all said and done. If someone can get it cheaper I would be in. I'd also like the sensor piece replaced with the 3D printed one from Rube207but I'll have to hit him up after getting the grill.

 

I'd buy one off you if you manage to get some.

 

They were in for me to pickup from LA until I wanted 5 pieces. Then wouldn’t you know it were out of stock in the US. I’ve got one seller now saying $70 + $75 shipping

 

who, if you can share? i want to get one asap. the ones i talked to are not showing any signs of negotiable.

 

Any progress on getting some grilles?

 

I, too, have been checking for an update. I have new headlights coming my way from HR and would like to order this grille soon to give the truck a nice little face lift.

 

Kinda feels like it’s becoming a not gonna happen ordeal now. Only place I can find now is ship from China 30-40 days smh

 

Hmmm, well, I imagine their stateside supply is gone then. If I had experience in dealing with LA port authority/customs, I'd buy 10 or 20.
