    Just put on my new grill. I went with the black powder coat thinking anything other would be too much shine. What do you think?

    yeah, didn't have any problems with install and it was cheap. I didn't get it from their factory page, I found another site that sold it cheaper than they did.

    Nice!! Looks awesome... I think that I like the Yota emblem breaks up the grill a little.. so if I did that, I'd probably re-attach the emblem.

    Agreed! It looks good but the finishing touch would be painting all that stuff behind it black. I painted everything on mine after a billet grill install and was much happier with the look, it makes it looks like a "finished" product. Otherwise, it looks real good man!
