New to the HL Family, but not new to the Toyota Family

Here is my latest addition to the family, a 2010 HL Limited. Now, because I'm jealous of my wife, I need to upgrade my 2007 Camry.

Welcome to Toyota Nation and the Highlander forums too! Where did you get the brush guard? I just saw a Tacoma with a similar one the other day and am kind of liking the looks of that one.

Hey, thank you! However, I've been a ToyotaNation member for a long time. I got the brush guard on ebay, of course. However, when I received it I researched the part number and discovered that I could have purchased it from another website for like $100 cheaper . But, the vender was very nice, and when the local shop couldn't figure out how to install it, he emailed me pictures of the actual install on the very same HL. So, I didn't feel so bad paying extra for the customer service that the vender provided.

I'm still undecided whether I like the brush guard, but my wife wanted it, and you know how that goes....

Nice HL...but I have to mention that the GS rims look great on your Camry! I was thinking of putting those wheels on our Solara, but went aftermarket instead, for the prices I found. Toyota should have made those wheels optional from the factory...with a Toyota logo, of course.

Thank you, dixon422. A friend of mine has the GS with the same rims, which is where I got the idea. I found the rims and the Toyota center caps on eBay for around $600 (without exchange). I even bought an extra one for my spare, so that I could have a full-size spare. I agree, I think Toyota should have made them an option.

I like the Nerf Bars - did you install them yourself?

No, I purchased the nerf bars and the brush guard at the same time, so I had my local install shop install both. However, since they are factory parts, I don't think the install was too complicated.

Same here, like the first pic (with no brush guard). I feel brush guard is masking the royal look of HL...
