In this video we are comparing the OEM version of the TRD Pro grill with 3 aftermarket versions of it, the price difference is very big, but is the higher price worth it?

You should’ve included where you bought each grill from so we know good places to buy them from.

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.

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.

@@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.

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

@kjk9416 4 жыл бұрын

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.

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.

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.
