Feel a lot better about my purchase from you now after watching this. Your grill hits all the details that I want in the aftermarket version of he TRD Pro grill. Thanks!
My experience with TWO aftermarket grilles with the INDIVIDUAL SCREW ON letters is that the tiny little plastic screw posts in the letters eventually break and the letters fall off or start to fall off. I then glue them (which is harder to find contact points than you would think) and they eventually formed hairline cracks all over. For anyone considering an aftermarket grille, I would say to avoid the individual screw on letters at all costs. I wish I had. I just purchased an OEM TRD PRO grille because I don’t want to F with worrying about any letters falling off again. And now I will be able to take it through a car wash if I want to and not have to worry about the damn letters.
Great video had my tacoma for about 2 weeks and i bought the third grill with screw on letters. I bought red letters to match the truck color. Thanks fot not shitting on people buying after market. 250 for a grill is insane
you bought yourself a loyal customer with this video. Thanks guys. Love it! Just bought one of these grilles through you guys and i'm interested in buying much more through yall. Thank you!
everyone and their mom has these damn grills on their tacoma so I decided to keep my 2019 stock gill. my TRD off road is white anyways so it matches much more than other colors.
@@yezkaholic I got the 2020 Sport and tbh I like the 2020 grill. If I had the option to swap out for a Pro grill, would I? Yeah, for a reasonable price. But then I don't want to deal with the TSS issues. It's a tough decision, but either way, I'm getting Ko2's first.
Also you should be modding your truck for you. The harsh truth is nobody else cares about your truck. I can’t stress this enough. Nobody is going to date or refuse to date you based on the rarity of the grill on your truck. Nobody is impressed or repulsed. We barely even notice you. The only reason to dump thousands of dollars into your truck is to please yourself. You are the only one who’s really looking anyway. So the fact that the pro grill is common doesn’t change the fact that it’s the best looking (if indeed that’s what you think). You should choose what you like the best. If rarity is the thing you care about you should probably commission someone to make you a bespoke grille. But again, either way, nobody else cares. If you are attempting to get status and attraction from others then you need to be valuable to them. So do things that show you have skills, resources, intelligence, and that you are generous and will share and help them. Otherwise if you have nothing to give or you are too selfish to give it, you are not valuable to anyone else.
Ive had an aftermarket TRD Pro grill , I assume probably a Chinese Knockoff, that cost me about $200. The Toyota Silver letters stuck on with 3m tape over Black backings. Its been on my truck 5 years and just as good and solid as the day i bought it.
Good video. It’s little details like this and you taking the time to explain them that makes the difference. Yours is a little more expensive, but probably worth the extra expense
You should measure its thickness in the ribs and around the side as people say the OEM is thicker, maybe weigh them all ? cool with a 4 parts. i ended up painting my letters over with a different color so the extra silver didn't matter.
One item you missed was the second aftermarket grill (3rd grill shown) did not have the mounting holes for the TSS wiring harness. You should have included that with your commercial.
I have a 2020 Tacoma. Dose this come with everything I need to install it . Can I use the garnish I think it’s called of my other grill? I don’t have any camera in the front
Mine is a screw on and it has the ridges and the garnish attached with the weird star kinda washer. It looks exactly like an OEM but like I said the Toyota screws on.
You can find OEM grills for under 200. I don't see why it's worth going aftermarket just to save 50 bucks. Plus a lot of the aftermarket grills I've seen tend to fade quickly.
All four of those grill are easy to crack cheap junk.Get the custom made metal , powder coated grill , the gave it sprayed with bedliner before installing it ..Total Badass look.
😂 Yeah, sure. Buy a cheap piece of expanded metal junk that is so flimsy it bends if you hit a large bug at 70 mph. Added bonus it looks like it was made from a left over furnace filter
Although i really appreciate you doing this video for our benefit, you really need to speak up since I have to strain to hear what you’re saying. Maybe it’s your sound system but it’s frustrating.
You should’ve included where you bought each grill from so we know good places to buy them from.
@Ishaan Daxton Get a real job.

Could you do this video for the 2nd gen trd pro grills
This is an excellent video. Really appreciate the attention to detail and the recap of differences at the end. Thank you so much for this.

Can you add the link where you bought each one of them ?
DB custom fabs and taco vinyl have some kool aftermarket grilles. Pricey tho
Will probably be buying a aftermarket grill for my 2022 Toyota Tacoma soon
Good video. It’s little details like this and you taking the time to explain them that makes the difference. Yours is a little more expensive, but probably worth the extra expense
I want 3 rd one ! Where can I buy it ?
You should measure its thickness in the ribs and around the side as people say the OEM is thicker, maybe weigh them all ?

Fuking excellent video taco garage. Placed my order and can’t wait to get this puppy installed on my Tacoma
I think the 3rd aftermarket is the best how do I purchase it

useful video but the bg music is distracting AF
Nice! Thanks for sharing the differences.

Will you stop rattling that thing?
Which one is the Auto Proo Parts Tacoma TRD PRO Grill
Do you have a link to buy the 3rd after market one please
Thank Pete
Ya I would like to know also
Just installed it this morning, very easy
Great product! When will the grilles be back in stock?
whats a good site to buy them from for a 2011?
What you recomendation if you want buy aftermarket
Where can I find your grill?
What brand or web site sell parts or producer parts for (toyo taco) better quality aftermarket
Is the OEM glossy black or matte?
Glossy.
I just couldn’t bare to look at the stock 17’ grill anymore so any of them will do!
Oem in most cases is always better quality then afternoon.
Are you saying garnish?
Excellent video. Very detailed. Very informative. Thanks
I have the 2020 off road with front Cam and TSS. Will the cam fit?
Muskie Angler not right out of the box, but you can modify it to fit.
Do you know when these will be back in stock?
Does it come with installation instructions if you add the raptor lights?
Do all the aftermarket grills fit the Raptor lights properly?
So basically they all look the same? I'm glad I have a real 2019 trdpro tacoma oem grill?
Where can I get the oem all I can find are knock offs
Where you able to find it
Will the trd pro grill work on the 2021 tacoma? I've only seen 16-20.
Yes it will.
Are the silver letters on yours shinier than oem?
Nick not really shinier but they do have a slightly different shade of gray. Pictures would be better for that but the difference is minimal.
I like that you’re high on your product, but if you’re gonna do it you should have them in stock.
Can you do a garnish comparison? I see that you have an aftermarket on your website.
THIS! Please!!
Will do!

Where? Can you link 👀

The metal ones can look too Bro Dozer. It’s an option if that’s what you want. Costs three times the price of the pro grill though.
Although i really appreciate you doing this video for our benefit, you really need to speak up since I have to strain to hear what you’re saying. Maybe it’s your sound system but it’s frustrating.
Dose not say anything about the forward camera..
Can I put it on my 2018 sr Tacoma or it only goes on trd
I just went to your website to check out pricing on your grill, I can buy an OEM grill for less than your grill, what makes your grill so expensive?
Michael Chaney where did you find it for that cheap?
What? The OEM grill is more than double of what he sells his for.
great job Taco G
Who gives? why justify anything? it's your money :)
Great job carne asada taco 😂
