    Hey guys, just installed my new grille on my 2019 Tacoma, was wondering if anyone has come across the grille fitting loose. Like there's a little bit of play.

    Any ideas/ help would be great.

    Thanks

    Plastic expands and contracts with temperature...what you feel as loose is the tolerance put in by the engineers.

    Thanks Ronzio - That makes sense. I appreciate it.

    BalutTaco - Wow, that loose? I just noticed mine from a distance, it looked like the grille was sagging so I came up to it and felt the play in it.
