    17 SR5 V6 4x4 AC AT tow pkg. Blue as they come
    A back step for when I get older, Carhartt seatcovers, 4Runner wheels, Topper, and "tats all folks"! --for now!!
    I have a 17 SR5 AC -- and have bought a used OR/Sport grill. I am trying to decide how I want to change/paint it before installing in my truck. I know I could do the quick thing and use the removable dip stuff.
    However, I have an idea if someone has done this or could do a photo-shop view on a grill.
    What I am thinking is to leave the cheese grater look on those parts and just paint the cross pieces a BBP color to match my truck -- I am not sure about the surround piece yet.
    Any help with this plan would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    No Photoshop here, but I think it'd look great.

    I vote 3! Think it would look even better with a color matched or black emblem as well.

    I have a TRD grille sittiing in the garage collecting dust, if you screw yours up or don't like how it turns out. You can have it for shipping cost.
