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

[Ditchhanger]

Can you post a link to these LED lights? I'm curious what they are. This thread is long and repetitive and kind of hard to figure out who the seller actually is. I got my grill through ebay.

I tried to see if I can order an extra set of letters from the eBay seller. I feel like at some point my letters will fall off and be lost lol. They won't sell just a set of letters

I actually bought a extra set for 5 dollars off the site the OP put. The 3M tape seemed kinda weak and I didn't want to go missing a letter if it flew off

Fingers cross you don't get screwed. Since my ebay seller was super awesome and everything was perfect including fast shipping, I will give the seller a shutout...."bruceshark-001"

I ordered from the same seller on Dec. 15th. Still nothing, though I did get a shipping notification.

I emailed them again stating that I've received the TRD Pro badge but haven't received any new tracking information since they gave me the first tracking number. This was their response:

"Good day and thank you for your letter,
I am sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.
Most people have already received the parcel.
But there are still some packages in transit.
Because of the logistics problems in EMS,
Causing delay, exceeding the specified time,
We are ready to resend it.
And we will give TRD PRO lettering as compensation.
We will give you a new tracking number as soon as possible.
Thank you for understanding
Best regards"

So another TRD Pro Badge that I'm not going to use and I'm sure that will get here before the grille. If I get two grilles, I may just have to sell one (or both). :noidea:

I ordered mine from ebay since the group buy page stopped working for a week or so. It took like 16 days I think it was from order to being delivered.

Ebay

Got mine on Ebay from Bruceshark-001. I installed today and even took a hair dryer to warm up the adhesive and the part of the grill that I was to install the garnish piece on. I couldn't get it to sit flush to the lower part of grill and it doesn't sit evenly. From far away it looks good but up close not so much.

Should i remove and reinstall with new double sided tape?

Personally I would, that much of a gap would drive me nuts. I installed mine Sunday and it took a few tries to align the notched out areas just right and get the gap even on both sides. It definitely took some force to get the shroud all the way on. Felt like the tape was causing some binding, but I was assuming that would happen with a tight fit.

I was able to pull it off and apply new double sided tape and got it much better aligned. The more I looked at it earlier, the more it bothered me. So I bought some scotch heavy duty mounting tape and re-did it. Way better.

i just go mine, my plan is to loop zip ties around and hold it in place so it sticks tight

i heard some of the covers if removed will deform and can not be reused.

I got mine from areyourshop-y

It took 7 days to get it shipped to Ontario. Shipping is pretty fast.

Can you post some pics of the re-do?

I bought from the imcart website. I got it within a week. I have to say I'm satisfied with the look and willing to live with the little gaps. I guess having a dark colored car helps. Cheers!

Ordered on the 6th with cartrimhome, was sent from China on the 7th, and is already past customs in Vancouver... I am just hoping it is what I ordered.

I think the contrast of dark vehicle, grill garnish, and silver valance looks really great.

Oh wow. That closed up quite a bit! I understand it's sitting flatter up against the original bumper but I'm surprised it spread out that much. Interesting!
