Grills

I cant find a solid black grill for the 97 tacoma so i can cut it out and turn it into a Satoshi grill. Any help ?

 

I got spray paint, but im looking for a grill so i can cut out and add the mesh sheet.

I dont think that exact one fits mines. Ill post a pic

 

No that one pictured wont fit, but what is weird is you have a 97 but your front end is that of the 98-00 generation...strange..

 

Yeah im not the firsr owner so idk if anyone switched it out.
But what im trying to do is make my own satoshi grill. But i just dont know what grills everyone are using to cut out. I know i have to buy the mesh part.

 

You just need the normal correct grill and youre golden to do the satoshi! You need the 98-00 grille!

 

Ya you need a 98-00 grill...they are all over ebay

 

I actuallt have this grill right now but idk if i can cut this one

 

Did it not have a grille at all when you bought it? I ask cause maybe the PO only rigged up the newer gen headlights to fit and never worried about mounting up the newer style grille....so there is a small possibility the newer grille wont work??? I doubt it though, if he went through tje trouble to do the headlight swap im sure its set up for that ste grille too...

 

Of course you can cut that one!
Shit youre all set up already! Satoshi that bitch!

 

Since you already have the correct grille i guess you can disregard my previous post about fitment issues....

 

I want something similar to this. But how do i cut my grill? Theres those two hard pieces that go through the middle and i feel like if i cut them, they might break the outside frame

 

Why not?

 

No it had the grill i posted

 

Honestly, i dont know how to cut these

 

In one of the other two threads you started on this subject I posted the how to write up explaining step by step on how you cut it up and make the grill fit

 

Dosent matter which generation grille you have they all have to be cut the same and they all end up loosing all the "center pieces" so to speak.

 

Yip listen to firstgen jer! And if you look around there are more than one thread woth good info on the whole process!

Ive also seen atleast one full start to finish write up on how to do one also.

 

Alright cool! Thanks guys
