    2013 Tacoma with a rigid industries grill is like a price for an emblem that would work for the grill

    Any emblem will work since you're not restricted by the factory grille configuration where the emblem mounts, in other words you're mounting onto a mesh grille.
    I recommend a small emblem to fit near the inside of the Mesh grille without overlapping too much onto the flat sheet metal or something mid size like 05-10 Tacoma.

    The best thing you can do is measure where you would like your emblem mounted and what's the absolute smallest and biggest emblem you can fit.
    Here are the emblem width size available:

    1995-2000 Tacoma (emblem width: 4.29 inches)
    2001-2004 Tacoma (emblem width: 4.45 inches)
    2005-2010 Tacoma (emblem width: 5.50 inches)
    2011+ Tacoma (emblem width: 6.30 inches)

    1999-2002 Tundra (emblem width: 5.08 inches)
    2002-2006 Tundra (emblem width: 6.30 inches)
    2007+ Tundra (emblem width: 6.69 inches)

    1998-2001 4Runner (emblem width: 4.05 inches, drilling on grille may be required)
    2002-2004 4Runner (emblem width: 4.72 inches)
    2005-2009 4Runner (emblem width: 5.50 inches)
    2010+ 4Runner (emblem width: 5.91 inches)

    2003-2006 Rav4 (emblem width: 5.13 inches)
    2006-2008 Rav4 (emblem width: 5.92 inches)
    2008-2011 Rav4 (emblem width: 6.30 inches)

    1992-1995 Pickup (emblem width: 4.02 inches)
    2003-2008 Corolla (emblem width: 4.31 inches)



    If you require a specific emblem height let me know and I'll post it

    Below are the dimensions for the Decepticon emblem:

    Large Decepticon (4.9in. by5.5 in.)
    Small Decepticon (4.0in. by4.5 in.)

    The oval that the 4Runner has measures 4.10 by 2.75

    Looks like the smaller emblem is closest to the original emblem, i'd go with that one but in the end it's a matter of personal preference bud.
    Maybe you want the emblem to stand out...
    Feel free to discuss

    Oh yeah that's another idea
    I suggested that 1000 times but usually people steer away from it lol
    Sounds good, in the event you're not happy with the item you can do a return or exchange
    Unfortunatelly I can't return or exchange in devil Horns because the finish treatment is almost unique to the specific emblem.

    You call your 4Runner "La venenosa"?

    Hahaha yes!

    Looking to get custom plates after I'm done w the build. It should be done by the end of the year.

    So the emblem bolts to the mid plate.

    And the mid plate bolts to the grille ?

    So I'll take off my existing toyota emblem and I'll use the same factory holes, no additional drilling or modding of the grille?

    Just going to put this here. Extremely happy how my horns turned out. I ordered them raw and had them powder coated color matched to my truck.

    Hell yeah! It's one of my favorites as well.
    I used to have it on my grille but now it's being used as a hitch cover

    That's not bad, the minimum I pay to the powder coat shop for any different color powder coat is about $80 weather I send 1 emblem or many up to the $80 charge.
    You got a cool deal

    I'm thinking just shot penned with a clear coat to match my paint color/ bumper color. How close do you think it would be?

    I agree, that's the closest match to your Taco
    Another option would be to purchase a natural aluminum emblem so you can have a perfect color match by painting it yourself, a good number of people do that.
