    For awhile I thought I was the only one in Tucson, I saw a few with billets around town. It was not until I saw Cliff, Matt, and Alex's Tacomas when I started to see more and more Satoshi grilles.

    I'm too scared to do it. I want to, but I'm waiting to find someone who has done it and is willing to help in my area. So, I would vote no...but I don't even have one...I never see anyway in the eastern NC area with one...
