    I made these and when I showed them at a Toyota Meet the FJ guys had zero interest in them.:(
    I've got enough going on with Tacoma's & 4Runners so I'm looking to get these to someone who can put them to good use.
    They are currently just gathering dust in my shop.

    $400 + shipping for the grill
    $40 each for the inserts.

    thank you,

    Asking my wife now if she wants one for her FJ. I may take an insert either way since I have an extra grill hanging out in the garage. :) I'll let you know later today or tomorrow.

    Bump, just because. I've spent so much time salivating over your work, Craig; I just can't convince myself to take the plunge yet. Also dat wait list!:eek:

    One day...

    Edit: I'm having a derpy day. Saw that '01-'04 grilles are sporadic and posted to a special thread.

    Homer buddy ol pal, does that insert replace the stock insert? If so, I'll take the one all the way to the right. Maybe work out a trade, my custom machining for the grille or whatever lol. If not I'll pay ya for it. That TRD grille is dope. But way too pricey for me. I'll try to get it sold for you. Text me at 8562663290 and let's talk business

    In order to make more I'd need to keep the existing prototype grill for fitment. I'm not really sure I want to do that.
    I did not get warm fuzzy from any FJ folks & as we discussed I'm not really sure if I even want to continue making them.

    Gotcha. Maybe you can pass off the info in making them to me and maybe I can start doing them since you already have your hands full
