    I wouldn't stress.. He's communicated really well with me so no worries here. I'm just pumped to get the grill and slap on some Raptor style

    Looking for some help, I'm on the list for the next batch.
    Is the .25 perforated round mesh the best match for the TRD Sport hood scoop mesh?
    I originally ordered the hex, but that wouldn't seem right with the scoop mesh.

    Anyone have a good pic showing satoshi mesh and scoop mesh?

    Thanks

    Any of you guys making these ever consider working with a company. They buy in bulk at a slight discount (i.e 3-5 grills each color a specific popular choice mesh) and they sale them to the customer directly making customer service their problem not yours.

    Might even be able to hire someone to assist with the bulk builds with the up front large lump sum. Also working with a company would I'm sure help with marketing and drive sales even more. Best part is you don't mess with all this customer crap and instead focus on making product; where your time is better spent.

    Just curious

    I've noticed a lot of guys like the Thin Lip....why are some of yall choosing that over standard? I like the look of the standard one, and want to put some lights behind it, will I have issues with not enough space?
