    Wish I could, but that's not my truck. @Tyler07 sent me those photos. Maybe he has more?

    Update: I placed the order with the waterjet cutter on Friday. As soon as your set is ready, I'll send you a private message asking for your shipping address and I'll give you my PayPal account. I'll ship the same day as when you send the transfer.

    Thanks everyone, can't wait to see those grills!

    Also - please double-check that your finishing option (raw AL, bead blast, powdercoat) is correct on the first post and let me know if there are any changes!

    Hopefully you ordered me a set of bead blasted. Let me know how to pay. The single backing would be great. Thanks!

    I get the raw aluminum letters from the waterjet cutter and do the beadblasting and powdercoating in my shop. I'm expecting the shipment in the next couple days so let me know by Wednesday, 2/22 if you need to change your finishing option.

    @flyfisher4822 I've got you down for beadblasted. I didn't know you wanted the single backing but I'll see if I can get one for you.

    When I run this batch of powdercoating I'll get some color samples to help you guys decide.

    Another update:
    I should receive the raw aluminum letters tomorrow.

    @orezona, @sulfurburner, and @KK1849 yours will ship first. PMs incoming

    For the rest, I'll send you a PM with payment info as soon as your set it ready. All I need back is your shipping address and as soon as I receive the PayPal payment, they'll ship.

    The batch of bead-blasted letters are now ready to ship. Look for a PM from me in the next couple minutes:

    1. @flyfisher4822 - bead blasted letters
    2. @blairboy12 - bead blasted letters
    4. @Ulysiss - bead blasted letters
    10. @Techoma - bead blasted letters
    11. @GreyTacoTSS - bead blasted letters

    All I need back is your shipping address and as soon as I receive the PayPal payment, they'll ship.

    Do these bolt on direct to an OEM grille for a 2014?

    Unfortunately no - that plastic OEM grill insert will pretty much only hold the circular Toyota logo. I think everybody with a TOYOTA emblem is running an aftermarket mesh or billet grill.

    Another 5 sets mailed out this morning! Bead-blasting is completed, now I'm going to work on getting the powdercoated sets finished. Thanks for your patience!

    Interested, but confused about the mounting of the letters. Is mounting them straight and evenly spaced a fool proof endeavour?

    Getting this question a lot. My fault for not clarifying...

    Just update the first post with some pictures of how I mounted the letters using screws. In every order I include a paper template that you can use to space and align the letters. Basically, you have to find the center of your grill (horizontal and vertical) and draw a crosshair on some masking tape. Line that up with the crosshairs on the paper template, and then place the aluminum letters in the cut-out spaces (you'll have to cut them out yourself). Check out the first post and let me know if that's not clear.

    Thanks! Let me know...
