    Does anyone know if Toyota makes the OEM grill insert (non-pro version) in black as opposed to grey? If so, care to share a part number?

    TIA!

    2020+ SR/SR5 style, 53101-04080-B2 has a cement grey surround, black insert and chrome bezel. Use 52711-04040 if you want to swap out for the black bezel.

    The insert is not sold separately.

    If you are looking for the mesh style, then no, there is no black version.

    Oh look, another mod....
    There was another member who wanted his TRD OffRoad grill in black, not gray (like yours), so he painted it with spray paint. I think it was a semi-gloss spray paint, and turned out well.

    looks so much better! How much prep did you have to do on it and what paint did you use?
