    Here's what I finally decided to put on to my GrillCraft grill.
    Actually ordered the emblem for a 1990 Toyota front grill. But TRDparts4u.com sent me the wrong emblem. But it actually turned out to be a blessing in disguise!

    Anyways here is the Emblem as I received it:

    This is the Emblem after about an hour of cutting and sanding:

    Now all I need to do is remove my grill and install it.

    I considered going with the Tailgate Emblem from a 2001 Tacoma? Someone else did. But I took a look at it and it is sort of like rubber, NOT plastic. I didn't think it would stand the test of time? I couldn't see glueing rubber letters to my grill.
    Anyways I'll post more pics. When it is done.
