    The best grill mod anyone can do is take a baseball bat and smack the dead middle of the toyota emblem. Gives a very aggressive look.

    I found that the newer FJ cruiser emblems that everyone buys brand new for their grilles was way too expensive, so I found this chrome Toyota emblem off a 1990 4Runner for a quarter of the price and used it in my Billet grille. It's not flat gray like the FJ one but I like it. Sue me but I like Chrome.

    Fun Fact: I'm actually breaking some California law by having my KC lights uncovered, I could get pulled over and cited for it since they're exposed. Literally everything is against some rule or causes cancer here (Prop 65).

    Fun Fact BONUS: It used to be a misdemeanor to collect/harvest rainwater here until a couple years ago, it's still completely illegal in Nevada. I've heard of a couple people who have gone to court/jail for unknowingly breaking that rule.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    The FJ one is absurdly priced because it doesn't technically separate from the grille. The best one is the one from an 80s FJ 60 those are 25 bucks and nicely sized with white letters.

    California, please follow through with your threat to secede. Don't be all bark and no bite....please. But all cool people are welcome to..... Who am I kidding, we're all screwed.

    I recently swapped out my factory grille with chrome trim for a solid black grille. I'm also looking to either paint my emblems blue or swap them out for blue ones.

    Plasti dip is the best thing for emblems, super easy to paint and comes out very clean
