Am I the only one that thinks PRO grill is totally cheap/fugly?

    But waiting two years for a decent aftermarket black grill was getting old . I didn't want to paint it because of chips and rhino would have caused clearance issues. Plus it just gives the derped look when you paint or change what it came with.

    The only reason I don’t like the pro grill is because there’s so many of them out there.

    Pretty sure there's more cheese graters running around than pro grills, at least that's what I see in my neck of the woods.

    I see maybe 1 in 10 trucks in my area with a Pro grill, most grills here are stock.

    Sure there are numerically more, but I’ll bet SoCal has a higher percentage.

    I see them on 3rd gens. I have yet to run into a grill swapped 2genB here in my city. I think it looks good on wifes truck.

    Now I need to do something about that huge chrome grille on my Caddy!

    I love my Pro grill, Was one of the first things I out on in the 2 weeks I have had the truck. It's going to get color matched then it's gonna look even better :)

    Work in progress...
    I found the grill on Amazon. I will go back and see if I can, Fits 2016-2017 Toyota Tacoma Upper Black Mesh Grille Insert #TC6358K, there Ya go. I like how it fits and looks in there. I was going to put some mesh behind it because it is easy to see through from straight on. I just haven't gotten worried enough about that yet...

    Put the pro grill next to both the sport and the OR grill....it’ll look a lot less ugly.
