FS: 3rd Gen 2016-23 (W/ TSS Bracket) Tacoma Grill Mesh - New Hood, Headlight, Fog Light Pieces too!

@gdtrfb74 search around here for an FJ badge part number. It's off of an early 80's FJ, found the part number on here and ordered.

 

looks good. much better with the lettering in place.

 

This one @customcargrills ???

 

That's the one

 

Received my mesh today. Should have installed pics tomorrow.

 

^really interested to see how that turns out/see a detailed thread on how you did it if possible

 

Got our first color matched bezel finished tonight, The Magnetic Gray looks amazing. I'll try to add color match bezel options to my site this weekend. For now, each would be about a week wait.


Also made a set of letters in the official Super White. Hoping to also add color matched letter options as well this weekend (likely also a week-ish wait).

 

Sorry, I was too impatient and didn't take progressive photos.

 

bah too bad. Is it easy?

 

I would really like to see what a pic of the ss mesh grill with color matched bezel and letters in mgm!

 

It was really simple. The material cuts easily with a dremel cutting wheel. You just need to take your time. The only tough part is cutting bolt holes. You have to choose locations carefully so you don't cut too much. You can't drill a hole because of the mesh pattern.

 

Here you go.

 

Great job on doing your own mod with the lights. Snap some evening pictures if you could. Would like to see how bright those two are by themselves.

 

I dont think they are too bright and with the angle of the grill (Slightly Up) they will probably only be effective in pitch black conditions but to be honest I only put them there so they would break up the huge grill surface. If they serve a secondary offroad utility then I am OK with that too but more than anything they are there for looks. (I also bought the cheap ones)

 

Forgot to post the black double weave on black bezel the other day. They aren't easy to make, but they come out looking great. Hopefully the owner will send in installed pics.

 

I am anxiously awaiting the model your working on with "band" across the center, with trd pro looks. Sounds like a winner

 

methinks something like this for 3rd gen would be money

 

Good luck on trying to reproduce that one, hahah. Mine still isn't done and I probably won't make another one like it for a long time.

 

The night pics didn't come out right. I'll try again tonight. The lights are bright but because they are floods instead of spots they just light up a huge area, not necessarily a long distance. I can see them being useful if youre in the woods at night or deer watching while driving on a back road. The angle of the grill would make spots shine up at about a 5 degree angle.

 

Sub'd. Just bought my Taco today and I'll probably be buying the first grill that has the 2nd gen TRD Pro look.
