    Well I finally got my satoshi grill for my 2013. I had a local guy do it for me. He just did it as a side project so it took about a month. I bought fj cruiser letters to put on it but decided to go without for now. I can always come back later an put them on. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. So what do you think?

    No I took it to the dealership to debadge. Man the idiot that did it scratched my truck on nearly every badge! Tried to cover it up with touch up paint and never told me! I was so pissed! Wished I would have done it myself. There are a lot of good threads I've seen here how to DIY.

    Looks good. I might one day do it to my grill but I like the OEM look for now.

    I've been though way too many grills and different looks. ​

    Looks good!

    Just curious, and it's hard to tell with the pics at an angle. Does your hood to grille have slightly more gap on the driver side than the passenger? Mine does with both the factory chrome grille and the color-matched replacement I put in. I think a slight hood realignment will fix mine.

    You know...I never noticed it before. I just checked and maybe there is a slight difference? But hard to say for sure.
