    I turn them on when I’m cooking on the smoker and turn up the music. Drives my wife crazy.

    New poll.

    I'm working on sanding off ALL of the orange paint. I'll primer and then paint the grill surround gloss black to match the rest of the truck.

    BUT should I keep it factory or deep dish Satoshi?

    Here's a normal Satoshi

    upload_2019-3-28_22-15-57.jpg


    The deep dish has the mesh deeper inside the grill like so

    upload_2019-3-28_22-14-41.jpg

    upload_2019-3-28_22-10-1.jpg

    I'd use the same mesh in the lower grill and paint it satin black. The black plastic (in the above pic) around the mesh I'm thinking orange, and of course the surrounding trim in gloss black.

    Similar to this

    upload_2019-3-28_22-13-42.jpg

    Here is sort of what it would look like on my truck.

    Thoughts?

    Please vote! As always I appreciate your brutal honesty :D

    Ha - I like the orange grille treatment, and given you famous reasons why. This is better yet. Deep, with the inside trim!

    Right off the bat, one vote for it sucks!

    Haha so do I. Figured I'd make the black pop by adding an accent and I like Toyota's orange. So I want to quietly add some orange trim here and there. I also like the orange inner trim.

    Ya man, me too! I've been thinking about it the past few days while I've had the grill off trying to decide if I want to do it or not. I kinda think I do..

    Orange looks a little fruity for my taste. Probably why it didn’t work out...

    Deep dish Satoshi would look great in a color match imo.
