Need recommendations for a TRD pro grille

Hello,

I'm looking to replace the original grille on my 2018 Toyota Tacoma with a OEM TRD pro grille with raptor lights. Any recommendations would be great. Thank you.

 

I bought the OEM on for my 2018 back in 2018. It was like $280 with the garnish. The garnish is like 300 bucks now.

 

I had the same urge when I bought my truck, never did change it, still have the grill and lights in garage.

 

Everyone and their dogs have done this, do something more original. Lots of nice stuff here https://www.customcargrills.com/

 

I think the taco looks better with the OE grill, while I think the 4Runner and the Tundra look better with the TRD grill. If it doesn't improve performance/solve a problem then leave it alone and save your money. Just my 2c.

However, at the end of the day if it's what YOU want, then do it. Just be sure your safety sense radar in the grill still works if you care about that.

 

agree, one of the reasons why I never installed my TRD grill.

 

You have the cheese grater grill...don'tcha?

I didn't particularly like my OEM grill after I installed my OEM LEDs.



I went with this site on the grill/garnish/raptor lights:

I am very happy with my decision...although the "Skewp" does spruce it up a bit! lol

 

Get the OEM trail edition with the bronze lettering.

 

The link posted by @TacoTime55 is what I did. Seems like the best deal. Mine has held up well. No raptor lights on mine. Retro, not Pro!

 

I am thinking of doing the same. I like that front grille.

 

I bought an OEM one and the garnish from Taco Vinyl. Here’s the link ti the garnish: https://tacovinyl.com/products/2018-2020-trd-pro-tacoma-garnish?_pos=2&_sid=c80d721e9&_ss=r

They also their own grill too so check it out.

 

Although, many have done it...each one is unique to the owner.

I personally think the vintage grill is handsome and bold signifying its reliability/strength.

 

I got mine through these guys. I haven't had a problem with it in like the 2 years I've had it.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to share with you my new grille. I think it looks great. Definitely better than the old one.
