    I saw that video then went to look at the thread where I saw pics of fading at less than a year old. I know this varies case by case and garage kept or not blah blah too many variables to account for but seems to have more good outcomes than not. But none of them have proof of long term use. Nothing over 2/3+ years like oem has. Time will tell and that goes for oem too.

    Agree, think that the SR grille looks nice. I especially like the 2020 SR grille

    I’ve had the Taco Garage grill with garnish installed for just over a year. Still looks great, and I’ve not had any issues with TSS.

    I like the 2020 OR grill. I’ve had the OEM pro grill since 2017, but kind of prefer new OR grill.

    I'll be honest, the thread title was misleading. I thought OP was talking about all these damn Pro grills that look exactly like the other 35,000 people that already did that.

    Just add raptor lights, ditch lights, and some bigger tires to round out the "I just want my truck to look like that other guy's truck" starter pack.

    Nah I don’t need all that just my big Toyota. Got all the lights I need already. 6730EAB2-3777-488D-BDD6-F3090D38BCD2.jpg
    As far as tires, the 35’s on the Jeep in the back are plenty.

    Got the OEM grill and harness for it back when they were like cheaper. I like it and it still looks like the day I opened the box.

    I like how it looks vs the standard ones or the ugly aftermarket options. Don't care about the hipster "but everyone has one now" worry.

    The oem grille is glossy, unlike most aftermarket pro grilles. Idk if anyone has really payed attention to that

    Yeah I doubt people are installing the pro grille because so and so has one. If something is ugly most people will change it.

    The ORs should have come with it stock.

    But Toyota knew it would be an up sale to offer it only on the Pro.
