    I wasn't sure if you would like the logo for your grille or as a hitch cover but @WBF610 said grille should do the job.

    Hit me up when you install that emblem, I'm worried it may not fit.

    The only reason I'm worried is because the emblem was not made for that type of grille.
    Time will tell my friend.

    Right, I understand. But it literally has the same four mounting points and the emblem just pops off exactly like my Tacoma.

    now you are making me want to slap it on before Christmas!

    I like my grille. Chrome. CHROME!!! I WILL RIDE ETERNAL SHINY AND CHROME!!!

    I lieks the kroam.

    Considering pulling the grille this spring and doing a variegated repaint of it leaving the cross-bars chromed but blacking out the mesh. I'd also paint the radiator, because that thing virtually glows.
    Not nearly as much trouble as some. I don't appear to attract the poop-flingers (thank Christ).

    Tri-color hitch cover was the first purchase (along with a receiver lock). The shield on the grille was always the dream.

    I ALMOST picked up a second Toyota emblem to use as the base of a mount that I'd kluge a 20cm Chinese-made metal shield to. This will definitely stand up to the elements better.

    Went in like a champ last night. Daytime pics will come once I can knock the dirt off of her.

    What can I say. I'm a fan of converting effort into money.
