    That shifter is nice. Where did you pick that up from?

    Where'd you get the grill? I like the plain look much better than the Toyota football or "TOYOTA" spelled out across the grill

    There are a couple people selling this style grill.
    I hunted around and found it for $125 here. I already have an OEM garnish and didn't get the letters or raptor lights.
    It is a little warped but once installed it was pulled flat.

    https://www.kokautoparts.com/products/honeycomb-grille-for-2016-2022-tacoma

    I actually switched to an OEM grill of a '23 Off Road.
    The 2 reasons I switched are:
    I bought a bumper with a bull bar that will block the TSS in that location.
    And the grill looks good in pictures and from afar but up close in person you can tell it's a cheaper grill.

    Eventually I want to hunt down a nice mesh/honeycomb style grill with a spot for the "Toyota oval" TSS.

    Compiling the list!
    Added TRD Pro Eibach Springs and a Rough Country Spacer. I know its a mortal sin to mess with a Pro suspension and it messes with the geometry but I don't wheel hard and the 35s were rubbing and I failed geometry.

    Ive come across a few online that I didnt like the look of. I like the OEM chain link type grill but for whatever reason I cant stand that huge logo they put on there. Hate the look of the sensor as well, lol. Hard to please I guess...

    I was thinking of getting one of these brackets, that would open up the options for even more different style grills
    https://www.ajtdesign-llc.com/online-store/TSS-Relocation-Bracket-10052B-p194252238

    When I got my truck it had the ugly chrome cheese grater grill, personally I think the new Off Road grill looks much better.
    The lower front valance sticks out so far it seems like you need something on the big on the grill to balance the look lol.

    I hear that, Im in MN so while not as dark as long you all, sun sets at like 5pm. I have always wanted to take apart my OEM rack and build something like this on it.

    Just an FYI, I wanted to put this on my 2022 but the fit was bad where it was touching the top of the grill surround as well as pushing down hard on the top of the headlights. So whenever you close the hood it damaged the top of the surround and headlights a bit.

    Installed my 8” BillieBars w/ tent risers & Molle panels and a Thule Basin RTT. Feels extremely sturdy and looks great on the truck.

    The oem LEDs are really nice. Huge improvement but spendy as hell, especially to get them shipped up here from a dealer with a good price.
    Have you checked out the h9 low beam upgrade? Drastic performance jump over the stock h11s

    Put lights behind your grill. I have DD SSc3 pros in 4k driving pattern wired up to my high beams or can be turned on independently.

    Pulled my H9 bulbs for the stock ones before getting head light and body work done from the bird strike six months ago.
