    Looking for feedback on this:

    [​IMG]

    I've got the prototype grill which is an OEM grill that was painted by my shop Matte black w/ a clear coat and three inserts - two in Mx and another in M1.

    I got zero interest in these when I showed them at a Toyota Meet - the FJ guys looked as if they could not be bothered. :notsure:

    Now this is just gathering dust in my shop...

    The inserts are pretty easy to produce in any of my mesh styles...

    Thoughts?

    Homer that's the same response I got when I did the satoshi on my own. I did mine to put an additional light bar behind the grill. You might get quite a bit more interest on the fjcruiserforums.com

    Here is the unpainted one I did. Wish I would of just waited and picked up one from you.

    Just the "TRD cut out" is not for sale. I made the letters out of 1/8" sheet fiberglass by hand. Just like the one on my truck:

    I've decided to keep the grill for fitment purposes as I've committed to sponsoring the FJ Northeaster's Rausch Creek take-over meet this spring.

    Man that looks really sharp! I have just put together a custom grill with Cree Flush mount LED's. I have a custom TOYOTA TRUCK emblem (T) and I was thinking the TRD above it would look really unique. Back on the Blue room I emailed a guy named Craig that makes the cut outs like yours...I just sent him a pm to see if he still makes them.
