    Glad I ordered the BAMF so I don't have to jack with the bezel.

    I just went to the local sign shop and got some scrap grey vinyl and applied it over each letter and then trimmed it with a razor blade. Turned out great and was cheap!

    I want to like this to be different.... But it just makes it look cheesy. Thanks for the visual, solidifies my opinion.

    I agree...it does look really good. Can you get some close ups? You like the vinyl better than painting?

    I feel the same way. I thought of getting it but couldn't get past the fact that In my mind it looks like a mushroom from Nintendos Mario bros.

    I was going to get it painted but the body guy recommend vinyl. He said it Will stand up far better to rock chips is of course cheaper but also easier to replace. I'll get some close ups but yes I like it plus you can hardly tell it's not paint.

    Probably April. Ordered 11/19. Total bs but what can I do. Ordered a rare truck and went with the dealership that gave me the best price out of 10 dealerships.

    Ouch I pre ordered during the summer time of 2015 and received it in Nov. quick turn around. They didn't give me much of a discount though. They said they couldn't budge and if I didn't want to pay that someone would, of course I fell for it. But I don't regret it. But now I'm stuck with the ugly Chrome grill on an OF. Can't wait for the BAMF grill. A lot of dough on custom grills lol

    I debated on getting the DBCustomz grill and like it as well. But couldn't justify 600 plus.

    You guys are making me realize how lucky I got with my purchase. Called Friday morning and was told "you'll have to place an order." Got a call Friday afternoon that they got an unexpected TRD OR in on a transport. The truck was mine on Saturday.

    Different strokes. Most of the grilles I've seen on here are horrible IMHO. I guess that's why we all have different trucks and do different shit to them.
