Aye! Dude that TRD grille has definitely seen better days haha. Much props to you for getting it restored and it looks super clean on your '04 XRS! Glad everything worked out and you got what you wanted, best feeling ever! Can't wait for more my dude! Thanks for the shoutout as well, I haven't uploaded in a minute so let's see what's coming soon to the channel.
I'd love to find one of these one day. Looks great
Gotta stay scouring fb marketplace and junkyards. If one comes around in our group chat, I'll let you know 🤘🏼
Matrix is looking killer! I just blew up the clutch in mine, got it all tore apart.
@SamOHalloran I know mines gotta be coming in lime the next 30k. I'm waiting on a junkyard c60 to try and install the toyota helical lsd 🤞🏼 thanks again for watching !🙏🏼
Looks sweet! I couldn't put it on my car because it looks too similar to the stock grill IMO, which I actually like better since it has some depth to it. However it's always good to have more TRD parts!
I've been trying to keep my eyes out for a TRD cold air intake for my 03 XRS, even though I already have an Injen CAI.
Not gonna lie, might have to find a TRD emblem the same size, glue it onto my stock grille, and follow your advice on putting the overlay on the emblem!
The TRD lower grille looks sweet tho! It'll probably be easier to touch up the paint from rock chips vs the stock plastic grille getting chipped away
@PlayinWithMahWii appreciate it! Yeah I've always wanted one. I had a TRD cold air and I gave it away to one of the matrix guys in SoCal at toyotafest. 03 is the best year 👌🏽
They do come up once in a while though.
The overlay is not bad, really up close you can tell it's not oem but probably best available these days
