Default Tom's va300 grill pics.

First off , thanks to Steve Ganz for the grill recommendation. Everything about the grill is perfect. From looking around, the grill resembles the TRD jdm grills, but the tom's grill has a different mesh.









Just thought i would share, peace out.

Hey 1niceride
Can you take the grill apart? I was thinking that chromemesh would look cool. Just wondering.

chaskim - Yes, the grill comes in 2 pieces. The mesh is pre-cut, all you have to do is fasten the mesh to the grill.

gs400_pusher - I would just like to thank you for posting pics. of your car. Your car opened my eyes up. You will see what i mean in about 3 months(hopefully sooner)...hehehe.

gs300rich - can you post a close-up of your grill ? Your grill looks exactly like mine, but with a different grill. I'm also debating about adding the emblem on it.

I got the same grill from steve about a month ago. I haven't had a chance to post up pics yet...

Did you get the Toms VA300 stocket thats supposed to go on the grill yet?

EDIT: sticker / emblem.

E-mail me on the grill. Does anyone know if you can use the Lexus emblem on the Tom's grill?

l3xu5 - Whats a stockett ?

Guru - I have a black pearl emblem kit that i have yet to install yet. Well i grabbed the trunk emblem and it looks like it will stick. Only problem i see, the tom's mesh has a slight curvature in it. It has the potential of not making 100% contact, but you could use some liquid nails to make it stick permanently. So yes you can.

Personally , i think i am leaving it emblemless.
