    Selling a DB Customz grille insert with a silver streak mica shell, bought it from a user on here and ended up deciding to stick with my current grille. Has Toyota cutout and cutouts for two 3x3 LED pods. From the looks of it, this particular option isn't available on their website anymore.
    The insert is in good condition, save for some tiny scratches here and there which you have to get up close to see, and a tiny bubble in the powder. The shell is ok, however the paint job isn't the greatest.
    With an unpainted shell and generic LED cubes, these retail on DB Customz' website for $485, so I'll let this go for $300 OBO. Also open to potential trades

    That "DB" douche bag insignia really kills a nice looking grill.

    There's nothing wrong with it. It's fine to not like it or them, but they're still awesome looking regardless. You rag on other companies for putting their logo's on crap too? Like skid plates, bumpers, etc.? Kind of twatty to be calling it douche bag.

    It's prob the guys initials (Danny B). I'm guessing you've never bothered to visit their IG page or anything to notice that? He prob just shortened it to DB after the business got slightly bigger and they had more people or something. It's not like it's huge and in the middle of the thing. It's small, inconspicuous and out of the way. The majority of people's eyes are gonna be drawn to the TOYOTA in the middle and the led/light cubes on it when it's installed, it's not that noticeable. The grille still looks awesome. (this may sound like an ad, but it's not.. although yes I do own one, a different version. The logo isn't that noticeable, since it's mostly dark behind the grille once installed and there's nothing to make it stand out like a wooden table does.)

    (Sorry for the mini derail.. I'll see myself out.. didn't notice the selling thing until after I clicked from front page. I just like checking out other people's grille choices. Good luck selling your awesome grille!)

    dont care what it stands for, just don't like it on the grill. I have pelfrey bumpers with their logo cut out on it, but it doesnt bother me since its such a large piece. the grill is awesome, just wish they didn't cut their logo into it.

    Thanks for the clarification.

    Logos should be well-thought out. Mobtown has its mountains, KBVoodoo has its "VooDoo", Pelfreybilt has its "Pelfreybilt", but using two-letter logos opens up all kinds of interpretations.

    But you're right, the logo probably isn't well seen on a dark background.
