    Everyone,

    I apologize for the lack of communication. It is easiest to get in touch with me via email or phone (both listed on my website). It seems I should check this forum more often, but if you send an email or a call you should recieve a response within the same day, or no later than 1 business day.

    To anyone waiting on an 05-11 grill that I haven't gotten in contact with yet, I have been saying that my current auto body paint shop is taking a longer than usual with this batch. It's out of my hands but I am looking for alternative shops in the area so hopefully this isn't a repeat issue. Its getting to be a ridiculous wait at this point, top quality paint work but just takes them forever it seems.

    Not going to screw anyone out of their money! Just an unfortunate delay.

    Socalmedix - I'm going to look into that asap, you should have had it by now. I'll PM you soon.

    I keep a good amount, but I may be out of a certain style. Shoot me a PM with what you want and I can find out.

    OK this may sound like a dumb couple of questions... anyway...
    So i've not done this before:
    1. Am i supposed to remove the grille off my vehicle and mail it to you or do you have your own grilles? if so what's the turn around time? if not, then how do you color match to my vehicle?
    2. I'm looking to mount probably a 20" lightbar behind the grille, between the radiator and the grille, I'm curious to know, both from the OP and the people who have these grilles with lights behind them, what would be the best mesh to get the most amount of light through it? know what i mean? I'm thinking the Hexagon, but i'm not sure?
    3. i may get in on the next group buy for ?next year?, is the mesh selection likely to change?
    thanks peeps!

    Can someone with one of Alec's 05-11 grills take some pictures of the back how he attached the mesh? He told me the triangles were drilling holes and then zip ties and I want to see where he did.

    I'm doing mine right now and want to make sure I'm going to do it right.

    I'd really appreciate it! You can PM them to me!

    Arrived today. Had to reattach the TOYOTA emblem as it was knocked free during shipping. Dug out my tube of shoe goo and ran a double bead down the back to keep it from happening again.

    And here's why I went with the small hex:

    Has anyone installed lights behind these with the slotted mesh? I'm really liking the idea of lights behind the grill, but I don't want to lose too much light to the slotted mesh. Does anyone have pictures of that type of a setup with this particular mesh?
