The Official TRD Pro Poser/Clone Thread - Post Your Pics here!

I liked the look of the real OEM black badging (no derp) and grille on the TRD Pro, so I decided to go all in after my tailgate was stolen and got enough extra cash to buy an OEM set of emblems.

The TRD Pro was never made available in Canada, so I built my own (with a few extras).

Here's my pics.

Front:

I changed out the grille and headlights. I negotiated a super deal with a Miami dealer, had them shipped free to MA, then had friends bring them up for me on one of their trips. The headlights would have cost over $900 CAD here, and the grille was not available at all.

Rear:

Again, the badging was not available here, so I fleabayed them to a relative in MA and had them forwarded. The TRD Pro badge was mailed to me from another fleabay vendor. I then went to the Toyota dealer and took measurements for proper placement.


Side:





I had custom bedsides made. A big thanks to CBoy808 for his awesome work and super fast turn-around and shipping from Hawaii! The sign shops around here were stupid expensive and didn't have a clue how to make them.

Suspension:






I think these are much better than OEM, but I have never run the Pro Bilstein package to compare. Again, these were both a TW purchase (new/unused). Saved a lot of money... Gotta love it!

I know, I know... haters are gonna hate, but I don't give a sh*t. It's my truck and intend to be buried in it.

So, if you've Pro cloned/posed your truck with a grille, badging, etc., or seen one around, post your pics here!

I'm sure they come in many flavours!

 

Had me fooled. Lol. Nice work on the set-up!

 

Thanks, man!

 

That looks really great! Glad you were able to source everything

 

I have a 2015 TRD Sport 4dr long bed. I'm about to put the TRD Pro OEM Lift Kit on it. Anyone have any experience in upgrading a 4dr long bed suspension? Any driveline issues?

 

Was the grill hard to swap out? I plan to order one and ship it to North Dakota. I'm in Winnipeg.

 

I had no idea there was an OEM Pro "Lift Kit" ...Are you talking suspension; as in shocks? As for experience in upgrading a DCLB suspension, nobody here has a clue... honest! ... including what I installed in the pics above.

Naah! ... pretty easy. The grille surround comes out easy, but the insert is a tedious affair. Take out the grille surround on Friday night, then sit in the man cave on Saturday morning and watch boring fishing shows, 'cause you're not actually fishing, and then putz around with the insert. Coffee works good. Lotsa clips to f*ck with, but nothing a two-thumbed ape can't conquer.

 

Looks good, I'll be joining you soon as I couldn't find a LB AC w/MT Pro anywhere!

 

Looks really good, one of these days I am going to get the Pro Grille for my truck.

 

See Post #306

The Pro and Baja suspension are NEARLY identical, but this is just a reference.

 

Lots of tabs and small torx screws.

 

You might want to source/link the right thread.
