    Is your grille all good other than the emblem missing? That damn thing is expensive.

    The grille is good; it seems to be a quality product. I opted to go with this from Amazon.
    Collect Light Front Bumper Grille https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C741LX96

    There is a formed area that looks like a door/access area on top that my old grille does not have. This cover is not included... I'm thinking it may be a good place to relocate winch solenoid this spring.

    As it went on a '15, I don't have the sensor(?) that I believe would be behind the glass ornament. I opted to get creative and designed a custom insert from here:
    https://www.yofab.com/collections/custom-emblems

    Although eBay has several used OEM inserts from $35. Way less than the $350(?) new.

    Edit: The original was shattered inside and out

    Was up at the property and playing with my lights, trying to get them from blinding others... decided to take a couple pics...

    Reminder of the lights:

    I probably should have been more clear....

    Very much not, but out where I am moving there are little to no street lights and lots of back roads. Which is why I got them. I leave them off, mostly. I was shocked at how bright these are.

    They are mostly for watching for deer and when in the dark areas. but if i forget or come up on someone, i dont want them being dangerous for them. I just need to pony up and get the new headlights.

    I get more usable light from my fogs, but then of course I run 4 Rigid pods for fogs.

    I need to dial them in, but I messed with them without my tools. So it wasnt all to productive. If I can get them lower I will run them until i get told I cant (and maybe still then, depending on where/when I am told not to). Currently one is fighting me on being angled correctly. 4 pods make a world of difference for sure. I am looking through some tabs now, hopefully i can swap a lense and make it easier.

    Westin. I went with them because it came with the direct mount to match their bumper.

    Added floor mats but kept factory mats over it because I love the look of factory mats. Just to add more protection and facilitate the cleaning process.

    Only had one issue with this particular brand. The rear mat doesn't stay in place on sides :(. Thinking on use adhesive tape Velcro to fix it.

    Demello front bumper installed. Will need to pull it for the winch and figure out my Fox reservoir situation to mount the extra brackets that come from Demello down the road. For now, it’s on and I’m liking it. Will get my SS3’s reinstalled tomorrow as well.

    Thanks, will be doing a slight tweak for more lighting but definitely happy how low key it is. If we can call it that.

    How would that hold up to a deer impact? LMAO

    My wife is showing me pictures of these cattle farmer front bumpers she wants on her 4Runner because of all the deer/elk around our property so I could not help myself...

    The factory bumpers are shit. This is miles better than factory . This will be easy and cheap to replace if it experiences any trauma.

    I need all white surround pieces for a TRD grill I'm likely going to buy. Anyone know who sells those and are they pricey?

    I have a 1794, all chrome grill and surround as it stands now.

    Really??? 3rd post on the same topic with the same grille picture. (I know since I replied to your other 2).
    White is not enough, you need your paint code. Any Toyota parts dealer will sell that to you, some might have your color while others will have to get it painted. As we also told you, you will have the grille cost plus the sensor cover. Both pieces and with getting your paint it will range from 700-1000 plus shipping and tax.
    Please learn how to use the search bar

    This is also a great reference for parts:
