    I'd be in for another as a backup. Finally got some photos today of the final product. Emblem letters are also MGM so they pop at certain angles and are subtle from others, which I like. Very happy with the way it looks. I prefer this over the pro grille any day. Thanks againTCL.jpg

    @watkins303 Thanks for following up with more info, totally understand the need to adjust prices to make sure it's worth your time to be making these. I'm down for a group buy, I'd consider an updated TSS mount if you figure something out too. Keep us posted, definitely the best looking grille out there right now.

    Of course and thanks for getting back to me as well. I'm relooking into the TSS mount situation, the current one does work but could be improved.

    As far as group buys go, I can get one going if I have enough people in, around 20+. So if you're interested in a group buy let me know or post up on here so I can get a feel.

    I would be interested assuming you ship to Canada. While I don't have a 3rd gen right now, I will be buying one in the next couple months.

    I'm interested. Seems the trend is to go TRD pro. I want something different.

    your webpage says $300?

    Was about to buy at $219.00. Love to support local guys but without the logo at $300 is kinda high for me.

    Who is going to be the first to mount lights in the center instead of the emblem????????????

    I'm thinking long range spots but not much room.
    Love the grill but would have to have the mesh behind it.

    I totally understand where you're coming from and thanks for supporting local. If you go back a couple of posts you'll see why I have them at a temporary higher price. Basically I'm getting really low on these grilles and only have a few left so I have them at a higher price until or if I can pool enough orders for a group buy to cover a new batch at a higher quantity to help lower prices.

    Would love to see a light bar behind the grille in between the bottom and center bar or in the center where the badge goes. The mesh is def a subtle but badass touch.

    So far I have about 3 in for a group buy, keep posting here if you'd be interested.

    For anyone wondering how the chrome trim piece looks:

    @FuzzysTacos your truck is looking sick!

    Anyone else interested in a group-buy, mention so!

    Oh yeah, thought it was good enough of a reason to keep the chrome in the headlights as an accent. :playball:

    Do all the grilles have a rough and bumpy finish like on the lower portion of the grille shown in the picture? thanks.

    Talking about the part for the surround to fit in?

    *The entire finish of the grille is smooth black plastic.
