    So what grill has the closest color to the Offroad black plastic? SR or SR5?

    SR5. The SR is a better value if you want to ditch the chrome bezel, since the SR grille comes with a black one.

    So any recommendations

    SR for value or wait for recessed grille option or custom?

    Nothing worthy
    TACO.jpg Not plagiarizing or anything here. Sorry to the talented person who photoshopped this truck, it's been my inspiration since day one. But THIS is what I want in a grille, slightly recessed.

    I just dipped mine and I think its good enough for now! might do white bezel to make the grill look a little smaller but over all it makes me do about 4 double takes when I walk away as is so Id say im pretty happy.

    Looks awesome @gbnathan

    I had an issue with T-Rex last week when I ordered a black one with no logo recess. It wasn't the laser series but the flat one. They called and said they had put it on the website by mistake, were not making them, and that the laser series with the toyota logo were all they had and cancelled my original order. They said they had plans to make one with no logo recess in a month or two. Well yesterday they sent me an email saying they were accepting orders on the one I wanted and offered a 44% discount for my previous order mix up and trouble. I ordered the black no logo recess this morning. It will be 3-4 weeks though since I am the first order for this model and it hasn't been fabricated yet. I have to give it up to Chris @ Trexbillet.com. Great customer service and gave me the discount to boot!

    dip'd the grille and bezel until more aftermarket options become available and pricing becomes competitive. For $10 I am happy with the results.

    That looks much better. I like how you kept the chrome emblem - some cover over that and I think it's just too much black. Nice job!

    I like the looks of the mesh grills from custom car grills. Simple but it really transforms the nose of the 3rd gens

    Why do people bother blacking out their license plate in pictures? I mean, hundreds of people can see your plate number everyday on the road... honest question, I can't think of a reason to do it.
