    Has anyone come across a seller for the 2016-17 grills? I don't need the sensor port at the bottom of the grill and don't care for the look.
    thanks

    edit: nevermind, got a good look at the factory 16-17 and they have the extra plastic in the same area as the 18 with the sensor port, ordered a $88 Chinese knockoff

    TopherWV, post: 17985607, member: 157747"]I just ordered mine... says the item is located in California with free return and free shipping... seller also has very good feedback so i took the chance.

    Where does it say ships from California? It clearly states China.

    I bought a pro grill on eBay for $70. Works like a charm and fits the sensor cover.

    The reviews and other pics gave me confidence. Seller had nothing but good reviews as well. She just came in today. Will post up pics of the finished product soon. So far so good.

    And done. $90 well spent. $140 I suppose if I add in the garnish. Now... on to tire shopping. 20181016_141022.jpg

    Some of you folks say you have the TSS but don't use the glass.. I have a 2018 Limited and don't have front glass on mine. If I don't put the glass on (like y'all do) does the TSS not work or what's the deal with that?

    Just got mine from mad hornets. $99. Packaged very well, nothing broken. Fast shipping.

    Only issue I see is the bottom holes do not fit the screws that were sent. It is an oversized hole. Top screws were fine. Not a big deal, I will epoxy the center “Toyota” piece in place. Not a deal breaker considering the money you save.

    Overall it is ok. I don’t have an OEM pro grill to compare it with.

    Do the Chinese grills come with the glass? I have a 2019 OR with TSS, looking to get the PRO-looking grill. Thanks in advance.

    No, they don’t. You have to order the OEM garnish for the sensor.

    image.jpg After having my knock off two piece Pro grill I am ready to ditch it & get a OEM one. Mine is starting to discolor/fade & look terrible. Anyone else noticing this? Grill is a year old.
