    Has anybody tried to install this replacement grill? Ordered from Ycarpart for my 2003 Tacoma. The grill itself is the right size but the ends of the towers that attach the grill don't fit the OEM clips. They look similar but the measurements are off. Any solutions out there?

    Stuff and junk and things...
    I had a similar problem with a TEQ customs grill, which looks to be a similar grill with a different pattern. I 3d Printed some small wedges to slide behind the OEM clip to keep it in the stand offs. It's been working great so far.

    Mostly cosmetic but she ain’t stock(looking) anymore.
    Couple of zip ties did the trick on mine:thumbsup:
