    My question is I wanna install a billet grill but have never done this type of mod, I'm a mechanic by trade but I'm a bit nervous about cutting the grill up. Is this mod really that hard and can it be done in a day? Please help out a nervous Taco owner. :confused::confused:

    Never did one on a taco but most are pretty straightforward. Just follow the directions exactly. Good luck and have fun.
