    I think it may be some sort of ground kit? Maybe from the X-Runner?

    Grill looks good, need to ditch the bugshield, just doesnt go with the scoop IMHO, and it looks like a OEM Toyota one, they've been known to cause damage to the paint.

    Looks good!

    And yeah you need to ditch that bug deflector if it's the OEM one. It will chip your paint if you try to take it off years down the road when it breaks.

    Definitely a different look! I would lose the bugshield and move your horns to give it a cleaner look behind the grill... Have you dusted the radiator area black yet? (cant tell)
