    No, at least two of us here...

    After seeing also, my feuxchrome one looks pretty good on my white OR, especially since it has the stormtrooper look going with it’s black sliders, Prinsu rack, black front skid plate, and black bug deflectors and window vents- now it sorta looks like a stormtrooper with braces...

    Where did you get this one, cap? It's what I'm looking for but everything I've seen is always a few hundred dollars and I can't bring myself to spend that much on something aesthetic.

    How privileged and lucky we are that our concern is which grill looks better...as opposed to say, where our next meal will come from. 1st world problems.

    NO.... Not a fan of the Dodge Ram or Ford Raptor grill either, what happened to the days when we all wanted less badges and product names on a ride? Back in the 90's that was all the rave, all the auto mags wanted less. Since when did trucks not have some touch of chrome lol?!

    The Australians mostly hate the look of the new hiliux and wish they could buy Tacomas.

    No one cares is your frame is “fully boxed” when the truck looks like crap.

    That is the ugliest truck Toyota has ever designed. Not only ugly, but even worse than the Tacoma for plastic mouldings that are going to be destroyed on the trails. Those “canards” below the fog lamps would be toast in no time.

    I don't know why, but this thread made me pay more attention around town and I've literally seen two basic F-150's with Raptor grilles on them. Didn't think they looked as cool as they do on the Raptor. Is that what Tacomas look like driving around with Pro grilles??

    Guess that would just be your friends opinion, not any more valid that another's.

    I'm just saying it didn't look as good on the F-150s. Tacomas look great with the Pro grille and the recent influx of eBay grilles has opened the doors for more people to get them. When I got my grille a year ago, there weren't a lot of cheaper options. Its very hard to justify the price of an OEM one I do think.
