    I wasn't sure what a white grille surround was going to look like, but I think it turned out great! That looks really nice, I like it better than the chrome surround.

    IMO, the TOYOTA emblem from the FJ Cruiser would look killer on that black grille, but plain looks great too. Was that your stock grille and surround that you modified, and if so, did you paint it black early on?

    i know a body shop so i took to them mainly because its in the front and its gonna see a lot of rocks so the better protected it is the more likely it will last longer without looking all chipped and shitty.

    Do you have the name of the website you bought the grille surround from? I wouldn't mind undertaking a project like yours...
