    This would be such a great spot to retro some switch operated small high focus yellow or amber beam LED’s

    I am using Automotivetouchup.
    upload_2018-11-23_20-20-36.jpg

    Adhesion promoter, basecoat and clear coat. I have used this stuff in the past(actually painted my entire grom with it) and as long as everything is prepped correctly, it’s as good as a pro paint job. It’s oem color matched paint just in an aerosol can.
    *disclaimer* I am in no way a PRO auto body guy, but the paint jobs will look very acceptable for the given part.
    Thought about it, but there is only about 1/4” of room behind it. Nowhere near enough for a function spot or flood beam. Only thing you could do is small flush mount LEDs for DRL, markers, etc. that’s why I am selling the RAW version for anyone that wants a DIY
    I have not listed the colors yet. They will get posted next week once hey are painted:)

    Are you able to make a below the headlight panel that represents the piece needed to be cut off of the factory bumper to install almost every aftermarket bumper? I'dd certainly buy that in an instant actually...

    Catching up on this thread I thought I missed out on this at first lol

    @mesojdm you still have that grill from your picture on the site? I was looking into that- I like the recess look and 86 the bezel completely. Only thing holding me back is the lack of tss compatibility or knowing how I could make it work

    It’s a modified BAMF grill. AFAIK they do not offer a TSS solution

    Toyota bar removed for custom printed letters, hidden front camera, Baja raptor lights. If you were going to mod one for TSS I would place the sensor right in the center(like the stock now) and do some type of horizontal bar to blend in and look stock

    Do you have another thread that has more pictures of your grill?

    So your saying the horizontal bar “Toyota”is removable. I’m not sure I’m following on the blending, I’ll have to look into this further though, I think it’s the only grill I’ve found that I like
