Where can I get a center piece that will fit my new grill.I was thinking about going to the dealer but they be over charging to the max . Need to get it ASAP!

    The old one doesn’t swap over?

    Edit: not trying to be an ass. Mines a 17 and my Tacoma is a 16 so I’m not too familiar with the TSS but I would think they swap

    I have a 2020 Limited and want to do the same thing. For some reason apparently Toyota uses a different emblem with the Limited, hard to understand why but maybe just knowing people will swap grills it's just a way for them to capitalize on profits.
    I have been biding my time looking at options trying to decide what to do regarding the grill. I did get the color matched hood bulge last year and just that change was a big improvement.

    I have a late year model 2020 Limited and the emblem was a direct fit to swap. Certain years will swap and others will not. I just copied this from Sparks-

    Toyota has recently redesigned the sensor cover that all of their grilles use. If you have a 2018-2019 or early 2020 Tundra, you will need the new, redesigned sensor cover as well (90975-02159 & 90167-50063). If you have a late production 2020 and on Tundra, you can reuse your existing sensor cover. If you are not sure, feel free to contact us using your VIN to see what you would need to do.

    Mystery solved !
    Of course Toyota switched up the design for the new 2020 models .
    Went this morning to the dealer and they want to charge 290$! 290 just for a center piece.luckily I found one for 100$
    Still feel like it’s a lot for a center piece but it’s whatever

    I briefly looked at prices from dealers and the cheapest I saw was around $180. So you got a good deal. Hope it all comes together for ya.

    Could you tell me the production date of your truck? My 2020 Limited is 2/20 production date. Also did you buy the Platinum grill?

    My production date was 8/20. I replaced my Limited grille with a sport grille.

    Hopefully, if I were to get this grill, my black TSS emblem would work.

    If your truck is a 2017 and you replaced your grill with a new one, I don't think your emblem would fit the new grill.
