    I have a 2014 Tacoma, just the other day a piece of tire from a truck trailer came flying towards my truck and hit the lower plastic grill braking the plastic fins off. Does anyone know if the lower plastic grill can be purchased? I would like to keep it stock, if not what are some recommendations for aftermarket replacements? Thanks.

    How do the Grill Craft inserts attach to the bottom grill? Do I have to do any cutting to the existing grill?

    I think you just have to drill a few holes. If you want, you can cut the fins, but that's optional.

    The lower valance is replaceable. I had mine ripped out on a trail. I went through the dealership and it was about 160 replaced and installed for non color matched version. I found it cheaper online after the fact, and I think its just pushing a few clips into the holes for the install. It was part 11 on the diagram
