The Chinese Special TRD Grille... on the cheap!

[cbevington6]

I got mine in 5 days from order. I give fit a 90/100. Mine is silver so I put a couple pieces of black electrical tape on the outside corners to fill the gaps where the cover doesn't extend. I also had to drill out a couple of the plastic fastener holes so they would clip in. For the price relative to the oem price, I would recommend and do not regret the purchase. Thanks to those who bought and posted pics.

You received your grill from China, five days after placing order? :wacko:

$100 shipped on a group buy!? Seems like if people wait a lil longer they are gonna be paying us to take them.

THIS! I ordered 12/12 lol. Still waiting. I think there were two links, the china link and an eBay link. The few I've spoke too got theirs from eBay fairly quick.

The ebay Chinese edition were already in stock stateside...the rest are direct drop shipped from Asia. I received tracking, but it just says in transit and nothing else, no expected delivery time.

Got shipping notification 12/14/18. Arrived at my door 12/22/18.

Installed it yesterday, looked like a pretty big gap on each side during install, but once I got the top cover on, it looked better.

Not sure how well the tape is sticking on on the side where it's bent some though.

For the price, can't really be beat and looks awesome.

Bent? Not sticking? Elaborate?

I did the group by here from China....took nine days from day I ordered.....no damage/packaged very well....did the DSL shipping....was later emailed that DSL was suspending shipping in china due to the christmas rush and they credited my shipping costs via PayPal and sent it via their shipper EMS. They also threw in a 4Runner emblem for free....really not sure what I'll do with the emblem though

Hey guys!

Got mine a few days ago! Shipping only took 6 business days $136 with the 15% off from eBay. This is a little comparison of the uppers it has a very tight fit and quality is great for a cheap buy!

Insta buy for me! $160 for a farkle is a hell of a lot better than 400-500

There needs to be a knockoff lower valance made pronto so everyone can complete the front end look.

Corny as it may sound, i want to order this but want the lower valance as well and I don't want two different shades of black between the pieces. Does that make sense?

You can get the OEM valence from Toyota for $100...

The grill is not flat, it's a curved shape. When I pushed it on over the old grill, there's still a small gap on the sides, while the middle was touching.

Where? Don't think I've been able to find anything for under $150ish.

Here is mine, perfect fit no gaps.

Here's the shipping info....

I don't have any pictures yet of it, I installed right before we left town. I'll get some next week when we're back.
