Blazing Blue Pearl Thread

Ok, point well taken. Thanks for the heads up. Guess, I’ll have to research Cali some more. I really thought they were producing their own.

Maybe someone from Cali may see this thread and will respond?

 

Check out their thread around here. A lot of customer complaints and no responses from caliraised

Hey, thanks for the additional info. Now you really have me thinking as to where to buy. So which company on eBay did you buy yours from? BTW, I sent an inquiry to Cali directly on their website as to whether they manufacture their grill or not.

 

My eBay page is having issues, but I just purchased from the lowest price. PayPal is good oi anything happens

 

Alright...thanks. I am going to hold off and look around some more. Also I will wait to see what Cali says...if they respond!

 

i was sold on theirs but just recently a guy called them out for being 40$ more expensive then a dealer. they just walked around the question because they know people are catching on, it really is all the same shit they just buy bulk, but their also a business so they will mark them up like crazy also. buying bulk doesn't mean selling them expensive then... go to your local yota dealer and ask them, i got mine for 175$ straight from them.

 

Yep....that's my next move. The Toyota Dealership that I bought my TRD Sport from is about 2 hours away. I bought their because their Internet Price was the best in the MD, DE, VA area. I also negotiated a better deal on my trade. They discount accessories. I have gotten accessories from them with a 20% off MSRP .....so yes, I going to be checking them out for their price for the grille. Maybe I can even get them down to your $175 price. Never hurts to try! Thanks.......

 

2018 pro grille is $180 from quite a few dealers:

 

Looks like Toyota is trying to compete with the Chinese grilles...

 

fredgoodsell, thanks for the invoice info. Perfect I'll check with EB.

 

I don't have one of these so I can't confirm one way or the other. But I have heard both that this updated 2018 version comes with nothing in front of the TSS spot (total blank hole), and that it has the regular grille piece there (which can be removed and replaced with the TSS-friendly garnish piece.

 

I checked them out, they have raised their price to $371.00. I will keep looking.

 

Say what you want but I am still extremely happy with my Chinese $140 faux Pro grille.

 

Pro Eagle jack and Harbor Freight jack stands. That made me laugh.

Truck looks sweet though

 

Still says 171 when I looked just now:

It sure does. If I didn't have 1 I would buy it. I put that in the cart and $189 is the total shipped price. That is a great deal for oem.

 

Now I am confused... I thought for a 2017, I wanted a

$351 PT228-35170 Toyota Parts - TRD Pro Grill Tacoma (PT228-35170)

PT228-35170?
The PT228-35180 is for a 2018 with the “hole” the sensor.

What should I get?

 

I suggest, for such a low price, that you find one at a local dealer and at least look at it. It might not be that much difference in appearance.

 

Me too!!

 

If harbor freight started making a jack like this I’d probably buy it for half the price haha. Those jack stands get the job done!
