    Hey,

    Bought a 2016 Tacoma in July.

    Looking to replace the grille to something a little more winter friendly, and appealing. Can't stand the chrome factory grille. Any suggestions on places to order a custom grille from? Living in Canada.

    Probably not metal and more likely plastic due to rust resistance. Pro grille if you got the $$$.

    bunch of stuff - Bro Pro style
    Gro Bro Pro or go home bro....

    Winter friendly :thumbsup:... we just had a blizzard yesterday and my truck was thanking me for using 4WD-LO and 4WD-HI in the same trip.

    Almost had to get my snatch rope out .... naw anyone driving in this shit on un-plowed roads needs to get stuck and re-think driving a 2wd car in that much snow... really?? Unbelievable, 10" not plowed... and cars.. OMG I thought I was going to get stuck BEHIND some idiot. They actually stopped at the stop sign on flat road got stuck.. hahahahaha.. I had to drive around them! Boom .... ummm do you need a tow? Sorry no tow trucks around in the SNOW bro, whats wrong with you? State of Emergency specifically saying "don't drive" nothing is open. Lets go for a ride! Wow...and cold as balls too so when you get stuck yer going to freeze... what's wrong with people? There isn't 10" of clearance in a 2wd car.

    For the record we "had" to go out and go x-country skiing... a bro emergency.

    Steel grilles are fine for the winter as long as you take care of them, If you don't want to take care of it, get something plastic.
