    I could definitely swing 10, anymore would depend on what the actual price with shipping and customs would be. That's where I run into issues, I'm only 1.5 hours from LA, but dealing with customs seems daunting.

    I placed an order yesterday for the grille. I found one from Jiangsu Duode Auto Technology Co. off Alibaba.com They let me order 1 piece for $200 (grille and shipping) then when I went to pay there was a processing credit card fee of 5.95. I've been waiting long enough and didn't want to wait any longer. I'll post when I receive, at which point I may reach out to Rube207 to get a price on the printed piece.

    Yes. I made payment on the 21st of June and received the product on July 6th. It's already installed and definitely happy as it gives the truck a fresher look. Also contacted OP (Rube207) to get a 3D printed insert for the fake plastic sensor piece.

    Im in the same boat as @D8181V3. It was tedious to install on a 2010 but it worked. Im thinking i shouldve gotten the lights too.
    Hopefully the OP is cool and will sell us some inserts.

    They still look much cleaner then the 1” gap from the sequoia grill. I’m excited for mine!

    Yeah, I like the look of the Sequoia grill but the gap was a deal breaker, tbh.

    And yes, it was a pain in the @$$ to get the grill swapped with the chrome piece. I broke about 3 of the plastic tab/clips in it but it's still very firmly in place.

    I was able to get OP to respond via DM but he stated he needs to get the 3D printer fired up and run a few tests before trying to make several pieces for us. Let's see if he sees all these posts in his thread and replies. If not, thinking of going the vinyl route.

    I’m glad I have a spare chrome surround to start on before I put it on the color matched surround.

    Hoping OP can make a small run of these I am very interested. If he is willing to share his file on the insert others maybe able to print off a few.

    :fingerscrossed:

    Hey all. Sorry for the lack of response. Family and work have taken every bit of bandwidth I’ve had recently. That said, I fine tuned the model a bit today and am going to start printing a few prototypes. As soon as I am happy with the finished product, I will happily sell these in small batches. I’ll treat this thread and the DMs I’ve received as a running list of interest, and reach out to everyone once I’m ready to sell something. Thanks for everyone’s patience, these grilles look awesome on our trucks!

    Nice. I was thinking about slappin' one of those in my chrome surround after painting the surround with black chrome tint. Still might someday. Got one of those Amazon/ebay abs grilles to tide me over, ended up really liking it.

    Update: I’ve adjusted my model to something that I am really happy with, and printed a prototype yesterday. I’m having issues with adhesion to the printing bed as well some material lay down issues. I’ll be working on tweaking things to fix these issues and as soon as I have a print I like (and can reproduce) I’ll reach out to take orders. Thanks everyone for your continued interest!
