Partsgeek grille quality?

I tried searching for this but it seems that there ain't a lot of reviews on partsgeek painted grills.... Anyway I was looking at painting my grille on my tacoma because well I'm not a fan of chrome. After pricing everything up from www.automotivetouchup.com it'd be around $50. I found one already painted for $100 on parts geek (listed below). I was wondering if anyone tried these out yet? I kinda assume that it will be cheaper quality because most people charge $180 and up for color matched grilles but just figured I'd ask and see.

I borrowed 1 when I was color matching my own OEM chrome grille.... I the fit is OK but not perfect. The grille comes in 2 pieces iirc andnu gotta plastic weld em or epoxy them to stay together.

Just get some sand paper, rough up ur OEM grille, get some self etching primer, some duplicolor paint and clear coat and u should be happy.

 

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks bud.

 

oem chrome..........excuse the NO SWAYBAR lean



sanded (barely) and used self etching primer (grillcraft mesh removed)


colormatched and grillcraft reinstalled............sorry I dont have a better pic yet

happy to help....................worst case, get a partsgeek and use it as a loaner grill until ur done colormatching your OEM grille. I just happend to be lucky enough to borrow a loaner from DTF

You sir are fantastic! I'll probably just ride around without a grille for a few days haha thanks again man

 

anytime.............. Beware ur radiator will be exposed........ for me, that meant my intercooler would be exposed and I couldnt chance it.
