Decided against the TRD Pro Grille

[CaptainRooke]

I was thinking about getting the TRD Pro grille and decided to go a different route... I went with Deviate Autosport here in Houston, TX and had them wrap it instead. Thoughts?

Looks good! I went the same route, but with ‘dip.

IMO the Pro grill looks 100x better than the stock grill. And now that we can get the TRD Pro grill from China for under $150, instead of $400+ from TSO, I’m guessing we will see a lot more popping up in here. Your wrap did turn out good though....how much was it?

I’m 100% on the opposite side.
I like the small logo better than having TOYOTA splashed across the front.
I think you are right about more people switching it out now though.

I see tons of painted black grills.

I'm still for the TRD hands down.

Painted the stock grille and bottom part of the bumper the day I bought it. But... will probably go with a China trd one in the end..

Looks great. You can put the money else where and I think the Pro Grille is played out. I keep seeing SR5's with no scoop get the grill.
The trail/TRDOR looks really nice and a copy cat grille isn't needed IMO but to each their own.

When I had my '17 SR5P I sported the normal grille, your wrapped one gives you the best of both

No comparison...

Played out? Like TRD Pro wheels and pastidip emblems?

I see more painted black than Pro Grills.

Not everyone gave into the Chinese movement yet.

I personally like the Pro grill better, wife likes the same way you have it. Wrapped/painted. Our 4Runner is technically hers so looks like no chinese pro bandwagon for us. :shrug:

Played out like tribal tattoo's and your lame comments.

 

[Dillusion]

Sorry but YellowSnow speaks the truth on TRD Pro wheels and Plastidip.

Pretty much...don’t forget flat billed Monster hats

With the sticker still on it.

Haha thanks for the candid feedback everyone! I'm definitely a fan of the TRD Pro grille as well... just didn't decide to go with it.

Exact same situation here haha! Wife didn't want to spend the money on buying an OEM TRD Pro grille and this was the other option I gave her. I'm happy with the choice and so is my wallet.

Looks good! Gonna do the same to wifey's 4Runner.

 

[FrenchToasty]

Tasteful upgrade, without going full retard. It looks nice

Saweet!

Looks great! I love how its a unique cross between the options coming from the factory. Nice, clean, and tasteful.

(PS, haters gonna hate.)
