    Im on the fence about pulling this trigger - but haven't been able to find this. Can anyone help me with this? I'd love to see what it looks like before dropping $600

    Would be great to see it, but also seems like it might be pretty unique if I have one since the pictures aren't easy to find.

    I'll be getting one I hope by this weekend or next at the latest. Will be buying it in black, and then probably paint matching it. If you're not in a rush I'll try to update this once mine is complete.


    ps. My current picture is my Tacoma ... my Tundra I receive this weekend and then it's the grille, so ignore the current image. =)

    You're the man, thanks bro! Are those covers on the bumper or is it plasti-dipped?
    Did you take any before pictures with the chrome ends?

    Im jealous! Thats the color I really wanted... :( Oh well, Im just happy I have my Tundra finally! And white always looks clean, its almost annoying especially to a clean freak like myself.. because after I wash it, it still looks the same :annoyed:. I guess thats not a bad thing... just to me. Congrats on the purchase and nice truck @TundraLife !

    Hey man I got my grille and had it color matched by @Roman at Toyota cool springs. I live in Louisiana. I found him on this forum and he quoted great price for grille and painting. Shipped it to me for good price too. Nice truck, great color right?!

    Did you order new corners or use the old ones? Either way how hard was disassembly and putting them back together?

    I just used newspaper and blue painters tape to cover area around the bumper corners and then sprayed the plastidip. Did same thing to the back bumper corners.

    I'll be doing this same thing in the coming weeks. Bought the cans last weekend and just waiting for a full day to do them. How many layers did you use and did you use the gloss over to finish?

    Sorry for all the questions but I saw on your profile page did you have your rockers sprayed or is that some sort of add on.

    @TTU19 i did about 4-5 coats and then came back after it dried and did a coat of the glossifier. I didn't want it to be too shiny so I only did one semi heavy coat of it.

    It covers bottom part of doors and little spaces between flare and back side bumper as well as between front of flare and cab. Tomorrow I'll take pics up close so you can see it better. The ones on doors for example curves under bottom part of door. I'll send pics tomorrow so you can get good look at it.

    My plastidip is holding up good also. Been on for a year and no issues. Putting on good coats made a difference.

    I was thinking of doing the de-chroming of the front of my truck. I really like the look of the pro grille. So what all do I need, grille and hood bulge? I see @Roman selling the painted hood bulge and the grille would be black. What is the piece below the grille that you painted blue? Was that painted separably from the grille? Thanks.

    Yes I bought the trd pro grille and hood bulge from @Roman. The grille is all one piece and he painted it blue as well as the separate piece hood bulge.
