4th Generation Installed TRD emblem/grill makeover....

Hey guys,

Added emblem and painted the grill black..used to be white....





Also i was thinking of mounting the plate onto the right?
Which one looks better? Having a hard time deciding..haha

I like it! I know it's just the lighting, but the driver side headlight looks darker than the passenger side

just a thought, would be nicer on a mesh grill w/o the toyota emblem
as for the plate, moving it to the right would look like as if the owner is trying too hard to get the jdm look on a stock bumper.

Thanks..yup gotta sit comfortably even if its a slow poke...lol
I tried tucking them, but any more that what i have would require the
bumper to be trimmed..kinda want the bumper the way it is...
