    hey guys I’m new to the forum and I know there’s tons of threads on 3rd gen Tacoma grilles but I just can’t decide what looks best on a magnetic grey Tacoma. Anyone have an aftermarket grille on their magnetic grey taco?

    2018 Magnetic Grey Tacoma TRD Sport
    Here are some photos of my 2018 TRD Sport, magnetic grey. I bought a replica TRD Pro grill off of ebay for around $70, and I bought the OEM Toyota TSS grill garnish, (the glass looking thing on the bottom of the grill) for $50 to allow my TSS and radar cruise control to still work. I also added the amber raptor lights.

    The grill has held up well, the photos with the running lights on are after a 1000 mile road trip with the replica grill, and all the TSS, like radar cruise control works without issue.

    I like my “pro grill”, the only thing I did different is, I painted the letters to a burned bronce, I did not like the silver color.
