    I’ll be getting an OR and, to be honest, I don’t even remember what the grill looks like exactly and I probably won’t care. I’d feel like a poser if I tried to make it look like some other trim that it’s not.
    I’ll be particular about the color, but whatever grill, wheels, etc. they decide to stick on it will be just fine with me as long as they do their job.

    I am planning on a limited or TH. Whatever gets me vented seats. If limited then yeah I will think heavily on changing it if I can get the light bar and OEM switches easily. Will also get the mirror caps color matched as well.

    My 2016 Sport came with a grille with lots of chrome (see the picture on this link).

    I almost bought an SR or SR5 grille (No Pro grille in 2016). I ended up buying a Pro grille because I wanted a black grille. I like the 2024 OR grille and I would leave it stock.

    Going to predict less folks switch out the grills on the 4th gen. The differences in trim seem less vs 3rd gen. But ya never know

    Seems like it will be alittle more complicated now that it has a light bar integrated. Will be interesting to see how that works or how much is involved.

    Was a big thing on tundras when it came out. People over complicated it. With any light bar you can just use a relay and switch to use it. Also wasn’t soon after BD and diode dynamics came out with better option than the OEM. Although the Tacoma option says it performs a lot better than the tundra OEM option. Haven’t seen the study on that, just verbal / text
