Nice job. It looks great. I wanted to do the same and match my L-Sportline grill to my RMM bumper. But the only concern I have is if you painted it, how would it stand up. Will the paint chip easily? Maybe not the grill so much, but I wanted to do it to my bumper, too.

Nice Grill - where is a good place to buy TRD for a GS300?
Like what you did - now where can I find a good price on the same TRD grill? I searched TRD's web site and it takes me to L-Tuned.

VVTi, looks great dude. I actually had the mesh behind my DIY chrome grill, but I need it for my TRD one now. Looks like I'll follow your lead.

BTW, my TRD grill came with silver mesh. Is ya'lls black or silver?

I used the rear emblem($15.00), 1 small screw and super glue the heck out of it. If you got some super glue on the emblem just use Paint brush cleaner and wipe it off.
