    hello, I have a 2016 Tacoma TRD Sport. I am about to replace its original factory grill for a new one. It's say its compatible but looking at the original grill on my truck it seems as if I have to make some modification. The new grill seems longer length and height size for some reason.
    Any help would be great! TIA! Grill.jpg grill 2.jpg

    Your bottom picture is a 2nd Gen. grill in the top picture is for a 3rd Gen.

    The grill looks correct for a 3rd gen.
    However the photo is not a 3rd gen.

    I got that. but it said the top grill is compatible with my year. which is weird cause it does not look like it at all. anyways, I appreciate for all your help for real. lastly, I think this pic makes more sense for my 2016 even if it says its not compatible. lol.grill 3.jpg

    I think you’re trolling but don’t buy that grille.

    Tacovinyl makes nice grilles though

    You keep saying you have a 2016 but the blue one you posted a pic of in the OP is a 2015 or earlier model.

    This is grille from a 2nd gen, not sure why you showing us that. You need 2016+ compatible grilles.
