Hey Luxury. I was wondering if you found a way to use the 06 grill on an 05? I too, have a gripe with the 05 grill and feel that the 06 just looks beefier.
I agree. I don't know for sure, but when I was looking at the hood at my local dealer it looked like the same hood, so it should be easy. I am not sure though and when I pick my car up from service today, I'll ask if it is possible and then proceed to look under the hood to see if I agree with them.

The bumper could be a problem though, I'll try to check that out too.

I just added the billet insert to my hood scoop to match the existing billet grill inserts I had. It looks reallly good, just finished the install tonight. I will try to snap a few pics and post them tommorow.

Has anyone tried painting the existing grill beams black? If successful, that should give the same look at the Jaos one.

If I understand you correctly, yes 4route did that and it looked good, but I think some of her pics are no longer on this website. In my opinion it looked nothing like the Jaos though.

Recessed area in the top of '03-'05 bumper is a problem. It isn't long enough.
 
Bull Bar?

Hey Luxury.

I was trying to find where I could buy that bull bar pictured on your 4Runner. Do you know if it's still available in the market.

http://www.toyota-4runner.org/attachment.php?postid=39231

I first saw the bar on a 4Runner for sale on eBay listed in New York, but haven't seen them since. Until now!

I hope you can point me in the right direction. I'm new to the board. Just got my '04 Sport last week.

TIA,
HerbVick
 
Re: Bull Bar?

That's the optional bar from Toyota, and it's pricy. I've sold a few of them - I have a dealer account with Toyota...

Save your money and buy something else. That "sport bull bar" is just a piece of plastic. It cracks under under very light pressure and won't protect your 4Runner.
 
Anyone try these listed on ebay - says for 04-05 4Runners but aren't the '03 grilles the same?



Item # 190068159166 if link doesn't work. Price is buy it now for $66.99 + $15 shipping.

ebay chrome 04-05 grill cover

NOTE- Sent him note and he said his supplier just has it listed for 04-05.

Luxury has a T&H bullbar. T&H has since discontinued that bullbar. Strona Industries makes the exact same bar.

Luxury's pics here, near the bottom.

Super long thread about the Strona bar with lots of pictures near the end.
