    Getting my grille done to go on my reg cab Super White 4x4 that I will be getting next month. I've got 2 options for the Satoshi grille, the usual TOYOTA emblem, or the old-school TOYOTA 4WD emblem. I honestly don't know which I like better, although I am leaning towards the 4WD emblem. It's a bit faded, I would have to respray the black, as well as the red underline.

    I was actually thinking about that.... I may even reverse-engineer the 4WD logo and make a vinyl decal of it for the tailgate.

    trd sport with avid off road light bar, avid rock sliders. OEM roof rack, 12' LED light bar, and Sock monkey decals.
    thats what i thought too but i thought about it some and realized there might be alot of people on here that do it. but in the real world there is only a small small amount of people that have done it.
    so like around me know one will have seen it or have it done.

    I said "toyota", the wife said "4wd" but she thinks it would look better without an emblem at all. I think the small TRD logo in the bottom driver side of the grill looks the best

    Yeah, you really see a lot of Satoshi grilles here on TW, but out in the real world, I don't think I've ever seen a Taco with a Satoshi grille. Only a couple of Grillecraft grilles.

    FYI, the 4WD emblem is from a 1986 Tercel wagon.
