    Yeah, pretty much this...

    Ace has a tremendous selection of bolts and hardware. After striking out multiple times at the local auto parts stores, this is where I head first.

    For the other random plastic grill clips, fender flair clips, etc... I get a lot of that from Amazon. I really don't see the point in getting crap like that from Toyota, as the prices are quite ridiculous compared to the Amazon ones.

    I still have my grill zip-tied on, though...

    I tried to set up an ebay account today and it wouldn't let me because they claim my email address is already part of someone's account :confused: I have never received an email from ebay for anything. I will give Amazon a shot. I will probably just get one of those bulk kits with everything in it. I used Village Toyota to identify the fasteners that I need, so I guess if push comes to shove, I can always take the part numbers to the dealership and pray for some spit and a reach-around.

    Will give this a shot. Thank you guys for responding!

    I was lucky enough, a few times, that some body shops in town would give a handful of fasteners to get me by in a pinch. It's one of those things where you don't want to ask again, so I figured it was about time I found a source, or two, of my own.

    the best option I've found is the junk yard.

    4runners, Tacomas, tundras, T100s all use the same grill clips. Just be careful and don't break the while removing.

    I have 2 extra, if anyone wants them

    I would take you up on your offer for the two clips, but I have broken all but two of mine haha. I am just going to get a full set. All the good junk yards are about 170 miles from where I live, but I do go that direction every once in a while. I will have to see what they have. Thank you!

    My local AutoZone had a box w/ various Toyota fasteners in it. I grabbed it and have already used a few when I found some missing on a project.
