Ordered the TRD grille for a 2021 4Runner without raptor lights. Now I’m 2nd guessing and wondering if anyone knows if they have separate lights that will work on the 21 Grill. Didn’t see them listed. Thanks.
 
I bought mine from PROOAUTO for my 2018 and they sent me a version with a black panel for 2020+ so it had the TSS Slit on the bottom and NO gaps on the side. It has a very minor warp on the top but it doesnt bother me at all. The letters were a pain to put on though.
 
Can i get a code as well?


No, it will not. They already have a pre 2020 version. Use the link in my profile to check it out.

Note - inventory for those and the 2020 grills are now in the US so your orders SHOULD be shipping from there (while supplies last).

Shoot me a DM if you need anything.

Glad this thread popped up. I have a 21 sr5 4wd. Plain jane. Let me know this or any other out there would work. Ebay has pretty decent pricing.
 
I just tried one of the $70 eBay ones. I put masking tape on the front to make sure I lined the letters up straight. When I pulled the tape, the whole top coat came off. Also decided to test fit it because I was going to paint it but wanted to make sure it was close to fitting. I couldn't get it to come anywhere near making contact on the corners. I would avoid the cheap ebay ones. I can't figure out how to post a pic of the sides but there's at least a half inch gap where the tape needs to make contact.

How is the curvature of the car trim home model? Is there an air gap on the sides between the crossbar and cover when installed or does it make full contact?
 
Anyone know how long cartrimhome usually takes to ship? Ordered a grill a week ago and haven't heard a peep from them that it's shipped.
 
When I go on the website and add one that says "US stock" to cart, I can have it shipped free to Canada (around $260 CAD).

Am I missing something? Worst case, does this mean it will be shipped directly from China?

FYI for the fellow Canucks, I just called the dealer, $1080.00 for the trim and $260 for the grille!!!! Damn near $1400 BEFORE tax. :der:

Hi [MENTION=147773]MIKE969[/MENTION]

How did this pan out for you? Did it ship from the US (fast) or China (slow)? Fellow Canuck in Edmonton looking to pull the trigger.

Thanks!

I'm in Canada too and ordered from them last weekend. Haven't heard from them that it's shipped yet but as I understand it for Canada they ship them on the slow boat from from China.
 
Wanted to post a quick update for my fellow Canadians. My grill from Cartrimhme shipped on February 23rd and arrived today March 9th. So about 2 weeks shipping time.

Of course I'm out of town for two weeks and can't install it #facepalm
 
I bought a Cartrimhome grill replacement kit for 2021 T4R. I decided to paint it black and seal it jut to avoid any future fading. Installed easy and looks good. I'd recommend it.

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't end up ordering. Let me know how it goes if you do! I'm close to the border so I might just pick up an OEM grille and garnish from the US for like $500 CAD...
 
Not sure how many people installed this grille on a Limited, but I had to do a lot of trimming this weekend to get it to seat and fit correctly. The end product looks good (still have to put the bumper assembly back on the car), but I had to trim about 3/8” off each end and 1/4” off the bottom flange. I read a lot of comments on gaps on the sides (ends), but I had to create some gaps in order for the top trim to fit. When the grille was trimmed flush to the end, I couldn’t get the top trim on as it was being pushed outwards by the heritage grille. I’m still happy with the purchase, but figured I would provide a heads up for anyone else putting this on the limited or having similar fitment issues.
