Aftermarket TRD Pro Grill Review

I wanted to make this post to share my experience with a aftermarket TRD Pro style grill I bought direct off Aliexpress.

I ordered it on a Monday and received it that same week on a Friday, when I got it the packaging was a little beat up but it was wrapped in a decent amount of padding inside and everything shows was included in the kit and easy to assemble.

I ran into an issues with the provided screws that came for the letters because they were seemingly to short to screw into the back of the letter when placed on the grill, I went to my screws drawer and got a few hex head M3*6 screws and used those instead (from this kit here

$18 VIGRUE 570PCS Stainless Steel M3 Button Head Hex Socket Cap Screw Bolts, M3 x 4/5/6/8/10/12/14/16/18/20/25mm Screw and Nuts Flat Washer Assortment Kit, Fully Machine Thread

I also replaced the fuse that came with the raptor lights just for my own peece of mind because I don't want to trust a possibly poor quality Chinese factory fuse.

Since installing the grill and garnish I've put around 800 miles on the truck going between Georgia/Tennessee using cruise control as well and I have not yet run into any issues with the sensor throwing any sort of warnings, adding this since I know from researching some people have issues with the sensor throwing up alerts saying it needs cleaning.
