A couple parts to this post:

1.) went to the dealer today to get a quote for color matching my satoshi chrome grille surround, and the dealer refused to do the work. He said the paint would not stick, and that he would not be able to warranty the work, and that it would be cheaper to just buy a second color matched grille. I know many of you have had this done. Is the above true?

2.) where is the best place to get a BSP color matched grill for a 2009 taco?

3.) anyone wanna but a satoshi with chrome surround?

Thanks for the help guys!
