Default Front Grills

I took a liking to Kev's so I bought some. (cheers for the link Kev).

Yes I know it's dirty.

Good improvement.

Yeah it was just a moss layer, brushed off with ease.

I have to say the idea of the side grills not being full height so you can change the indicator bulbs is bull.
When the grills snap into the clips I think they are in for life. I managed to miss align one of the clips while fitting and it took a good 10mins just getting the clip off.
Indicator bulb renewal in my opinion involves removing the headlight.

Notice I junked the "Zun sport" badge. Sorry fellas but you need a better logo.

I too removed the badge. Did you mention my name Gambit? If you did they were offering a £10 gift voucher for M&S

Looks great btw.

Yep I mentioned your name and they billed me an extra £20 for having dodgy associates.
Nah not really. I didn't mention your name through embarrassment.

Sorry Kev I forgot to be honest.
Like my trd badge?

Very nice, where did you get it from?

It would appear as though you owe me a few drink

How did you find the company to deal with? I found them very helpful and the quality of the product is great.

I ordered the parts off the web site and they arrived in the post, no contact at all.

It seems odd that Toyota didn't fit a grill in there in the first place. That looks like it's factory fitted.

it's not a bad fit at all, relatively simple and doesn't require the bumper off.
Only point is that be sure you want it before you start as the clips will scratch the bumper.

When it stops raining long enough I'm going to go and paint the clips through the grill with a modeling brush.
