Got mine today, ordered from eBay during their 15% coupon deal. Just know you'll get notification that it sis but nothing else it'll just show up at your door. Quality is pretty damn Impressive but I can't compare the OEM one side by side. I just placed the letters on so they're not straight.

Still waiting for mine from the group buy to arrive.
The shipping info shows it left Southern China on 12/16 but it has not delivered and no shipping update other than that .
Just sent an email to sender to see if I can get an update. Hopefully just shipping delay due to holidays ... we will see

I know it's a hassle but a little Bondo and sanding and spray will get you the results you're looking for and it'll be something you did, that custom touch

Just installed mine. Took about an hour. 8 out of 10 in terms of fitment. The upper grille needs some fiddling because the half circle wants to go inside instead of outside.
The garish on mine has a 6mm gap on each side in case anyone is wondering.
Highly recommend heat gun or blow dryer to set the double sided tape on the garish as well as the lettering.

For dark colored Runners, blk, gray etc. the gap isn’t noticeable. On white and silver more so. Still, it’s minimal especially given the price.

Thank you.....purchased ($150 as well). 13 posts to go!
I put the letters on yesterday morning when the temperature was around 14 degree. I parked the truck in sunlights for few hrs then attached the letters. The Garnish center piece was not hot just warm. The tem as i said was probably over 14 degree. The adhesives are just fine. I even had to redo the letter O and adjust some other letters. I was surprised how sticky they were as i had to use some force to remove and adjust etc... i thr pressed on the letters for few min just to be sure.
Don’t worry guys it may not be 3M brand but the adhesives are plenty sticky/tough!

Ask a local body shop to paint them for you.

The "free gift" TRD Pro badge arrived before the grill...

Oh geez...I’m in the same boat. Still no word on shipment, and it looks like the people that ordered the group buy are still not receiving anything. :nono:

Thank you. Not nearly as noticeable as I thought it might be.
