    Toyota did not make a pro in ssm so there is no factory option. Sparks did offer the option to order it already color matched (they paint it for you) but that has since passed. Here is a link to one in super white that's on sale. You'll have to get the surround painted at a body shop. I bought a ssm platinum grille and a super white trd pro grille and separated the centers from the surrounds and swapped them. I sold the remains to a forum member to recoup some money back.

    Also, it's been my experience that body shops prefer to paint over black surrounds. They can see the paint coverage easier than over a light colored surround, and if you have any rock chips in the future, it will be black underneath the paint.

    Thanks Roman, appreciate the info! Does the grill surround come in any sort of “prepped for painting” option or do you actually have to choose a color?

    Just have to choose a color. All the non-chrome options are painted from the factory.

    Thanks, I found another thread where he mentioned modifying the brackets so they sit closer to the body of the truck. Don’t think I’ll be able to pull that off

    I swapped mine to the Go Rhino RB20 and couldn't be happier. They're super tight to the body and are very non-slip when wet or muddy

    I’ll have to try to get some better pictures tomorrow but I got them on today. They’re a little darker than They looked online, more of a gunmetal I’d say, but regardless I’m tickled with how they look on the truck.

    Looks good! The gunmetal is nice too. Either way, I think I might go that route down the road. Thanks for sharing!

    SSM brothers, I have a 2016 SR5(with the absurd chrome on chrome grille) and am about to pickup a 2018 SR5 grille with white surround. I already have blacked out wheels and the black 2020 SR5 halogen headlights in my garage. I’m not a fan of chrome but I do think it looks pretty good with the SSM color if there isn’t too much of it. Should I just pop out my grille inserts and sell the white surround to a stormtopper on here or try to get the white color matched SSM at a local shop? Not sure what that would cost and I would then have to buy a SSM bulge too down the line. I am leaning towards keeping some chrome and saving the money for other mods.

    I had a trd pro insert with the chrome surround plus black trd pro halogen headlights on mine for a little bit before I went into colormatch mode. Here's are some pics of it so get an idea.

    But they both look great! I will just have to see what the body shop wants to charge to color match a surround to see if it makes sense.

    Does anyone have a painted surround but with the stock (not TRD) insert? I'm thinking of doing this but not sure how it would look. Chrome is my nemesis for cleanliness lol

    My stocks hung way too low and stuck out too far also. These are Iron Cross Patriot. I did trim the brackets to suck them in further.

    I was gonna suggest nearly the same ...

    Back when I had the TRD grill with chrome surround/hood bulge


    SSM’s can get away with some chrome!

    Did you order the surround painted from Sparks? The match looks good.

    Agreed. I’m going to reach out to one or two body shops to see the cost to color match the grille surround but if the cost is high I will just go with the chrome surround with 2018 insert. It will still look like a nice upgrade without color matching everything.

    Cameron may not have, but I did (many years ago) and it matches perfectly
