    Hello everyone, I am trying to buy a billet grill for my 2008 Tacoma TRD Sport, I will like the 5 pieces, but I dont want the chrome, I have seen some grills that look a litle bit darker but not 100% black...does anyone have any ideas where I can get a grill like that??

    I will appreciate the info..
    Thanks.

    Check out Carriage Works, (not sure about a 5 piece) they carry the high luster, polished and black.
    To get a certain effect on the black, you can take 0000 steel wool and give it a light buff. Do this to give newer parked guns the effect of being older.

    Get a kit off e-bay (not a brand name/high end kit) and get it painted or powder-coated.

    I spent about 150 for my kit- and about 15 bucks in paint...and got this: [​IMG]
