Here's a before and after pic. New satoshi grill, headlights and bumper clear lens makes my runner look younger, I think. What do you guys think?

Ha, in the first couple pics it looks like you gave your 4runner some balls. It looks really nice and the colors right :) Now I have a good idea what mine will look like when I copy you.
 
Can you get a close up of the grill mesh you used? I have been trying to find ideas for when I do mine. I have the emblem already, just need to figure out the other parts.
 
[MENTION=79156]aeroneer1[/MENTION] The grill emblem is from a new FJ cruiser. You can find them at a Toyota dealer. Generally around $45 -$50.

[MENTION=119314]Dephcon[/MENTION] The mesh that was used is plaster lathe mesh. You can buy it from home improvement stores in a 3x6 sheet for $10 or so. Its cut to size, and attached with zip tie mounts along the back side. Here is a pic of a different grille using the same mesh.



[MENTION=117483]benjamin247[/MENTION] Everything turned out great. The clear lenses make everything look so much cleaner. Good job man.

Here are more pics of the grill from Millerad1651. Awesome job!

[MENTION=75483]Millerad1651[/MENTION] Looks great. Are you sure it's an FJ cruiser emblem? I can't find it on any of the parts sites, just the rear emblems. It looks just like the FJ60 emblem from 84-87 land cruiser or so.

Where are you getting yours?

Part # 75311-90K00

Its from an FJ Cruiser. Its plastic, painted white and black. You can get them at most online Toyota dealers, around $40-45 shipped. I get mine locally, the guu cuts me a deal since I've bought so many of them.

Have you tried Metal Supermarket? They too carry various types of expanded metal including the one that the OP used. There's a Langley location you can try and go to.

Ok so the site says it's an FJ60 emblem? I thought FJ Cruisers are those beefy looking Toyotas with round headlights they started making in 2005 or so? Which is not the same as a FJ40, FJ60, FJ80, etc, which is a Land Cruiser? Or am I losing it?

This part fits the listed vehicles and their options:
Model Year Trim Engine Important vehicle option details
 Land Cruiser
1985-1987
6 Cyl 3.4L
 
Well now I'm really confused .. What's the difference between these two, other than the price?

Thanks. Ya just by googling the part number a I found a ton of posts (mostly 5th gen) that used it for satoshi, so I figured it was good.
