    I have no idea.. I left my garage and when I arrived at my destination it was gone. I never even slapped it in reverse.

    have not researched the new logo but might just pick this one.

    I have no garnish on my 2018 and no problems. First 100 miles it had a clean sensor error while the sensor adjusted to the new obstruction of the new grill. After 100 miles it self adjusted and good to go.

    Notice on the T and the A that the outline is gray but on the rest of the letters it’s black. This isn’t probably noticeable at 5 feet away but I notice it.

    That bothered me so I looked for other versions. Lucked out with this eBay one.

    Those cross bars don't seem very clean either (good bit of flash)

    Has anyone found one that doesn't have the TSS plastic? Seems like all of the aftermarket ones now include it.

    Yessss. Super easy, they click into the pro grill. They won’t work on the original off-road grille.

    Then we cut into the fog light wire and linked it up. They have actual wire splitters you can get for a couple bucks if you don’t want to do it the old school way. It took less than 15 min. Only because we took out the grill again
