Finished My Satoshi

Let me know what you guys think! Still debating on the colors.

 

Looks good, Blue on Silver does the trick.
I'll be doing my grille soon.

 

Thanks, thought it would match my bedsides. I was a little hesitant about cutting up my grill but I think it turned out pretty good.

 

Looks great man! Ive been wanting to do this to me 12. Where did you get the material for the grille?

 

I got some universal mesh from cusomcargrills.com that I cut to fit. They offer pre-cut mesh for 12-14 tacomas if you're looking:http://www.customcargrills.com/Toyota-Truck-Grills.asp

 

Thanks man! I actually just did a web search and found that site before you posted it, but good looking out!

 

No problem, for the price you can't beat it! They also offer cash back for pictures of your grille installed so that's a plus.

 

Looks GREAT!!!!!!!!!

 

Thank you! I like the toyota emblem on yours, where did you get it?

 

There ya go the link is in there

 

You're grill looks awesome, great job. Thinking of doing mine soon, one question though. What did yo do with the hood release latch that you used to have to reach through the grill to get to with the stock grill?

 

Thanks! Definitely glad with the way it came out and pretty easy to do. As for the latch you don't have to do anything to it. You can still release the latch by popping the hood and running your finger right to left to hit the hook.

 

Oh awesome thank you for the explanation. I'm going to do mine this weekend now

 

No problem! Good luck with the build just take your time and it will look great. Would love to see some pics when you're done

 

looks very nice! if you ever wanna sell it hit me up lol im local-ish! and nice to see a 1st gen round here... we are a rare (kinda) breed!

 

Thank you! Although I won't be selling it anytime soon haha. The grille was pretty easy to make and only cost me around 80 bucks in materials. If you like the look its worth giving it a try, that is if you're brave enough to cut up your grille. Agree on the rarity of 1st gens on here, but around phoenix I feel like every other vehicle I see is a Taco or Tundra. On my street alone there are 4 1st gen Tacoma owners and 1 2nd gen.
Updated pic with the triangles done:

 

That looks great! I got my mesh from customcargrills.com also. They have mesh of the month and my 6"x36" piece was under $10 (+S&H).
If didn't do my triangles, though.

 

Thank you! Wow what a deal, for my 16x48" piece it was $40 just because I went with the silver powder coat instead of black which would of been $55. Love the camo letters on yours, very unique
