Finished making the raptor grill this week and got new wheels and tires on today. Couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. The tires are 275/70/17 BFG KO2 AT, used the eBay deal got all 4 for $648. The wheels are the ones on 4runner TRD pro. Got the grill mesh and letters from custom car grills for $85.

How long did it take you to do the grill? Also does it feel pretty sturdy? I have been peeping them out, just worried it will not hold up over time.

Took me a few hours to do it all and the automotive goop had to cure for 24 hours with the zip ties on. It is sturdy. Went through a car wash today and all was good. Don't see it gettin any worse abuse then that.
