    I am looking to buy the TRD PRO grille for my new 3rd gen TRD Sport...

    Here are my options,

    -New: $400
    -Used: $160 (2 broken clips)
    -Used: $200 (1 broken clip)

    Not sure how important the clips are, and or how many there are total. What deal would you choose?

    Come on dude, this didn't need a thread dedicated to itself.

    To answer your question given the amount of clips that secure the grill all together, 2 broken ones should be fine and will save you money but still serve its purpose, would go with that option.

    Worst case, you can always apply a little jb weld to secure the two broken clips.

    How are they're so many pro grills out there already with broken clips?

    Where's the one with 1 broken clip? If your not buying it is might be interested

    A lot of them have been arriving with broken clips from the factory. They are not packed well... at all. Basically just thrown in a box.

    Also, this thread should have a poll. :bananadance:

    My grill arrived and it had 2 clips broken the first time so I reordered and it had one broken the next time. I took it with one broken clip for a deep discount and it installed perfectly. There's probably a dozen clips and the grill is really light. I have had no issues with mine.

    The one I bought ended up with a broken clip too, I would have plastic welded it back in place but it actually poked a hole thru the box and was broke off outside the box, Toyota needs to put some foam blocks or something instead of just a bubblewrapped bag.

    Honestly, there are so many clips on this thing that 1 broken clip isn't going to make any difference. 200 for one broken clip is a smoking deal... imo
