Chrome Tacoma Grille for 2004 model

[2tacomas]

Does anyone know where I can get a chrome finished grille for my 2004 Tacoma? I like the design of the stock grille, I just want the finish to be chrome instead of black. Toyota offers the Tundra with either a black or chrome finished grille, why couldn't they have done that with the Tacoma? I have looked at alot of different replacement grilles and grille inserts and have not seen anything that I like (I don't like the billet inserts or the grille inserts that are made of small horizontal bars). I have even thought about using chrome colored paint on my grille but I worry that the color will not match the other chrome parts on my truck (it has the SR5 Chrome package). I really want to find something that looks exactly like my stock grille....only in a chrome finish instead of black. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Any suggestions at all? I am sure that there are other people out there who have looked into this....Maybe they ran into the same problem that I did.

If your truck has a chrome package, it should have a chrome grill. Chrome grills are readily available I am sure.

On the 2004 Toyota Tacoma, the chrome package gives you a chrome accent around the outside of the grille, but the grille itself is all black (except for the Toyota emblem). I have been looking for either a replacement grille that looks the same as the stock one but with a chrome finish (I thought for sure that Toyota would atleast offer one through Toyota Performance Parts...but I have had no such luck finding one through them) or someone who can refinish my factory grille to give it the look that I want- I have been unable to anyone who can do this either. All of the chrome aftermarket grille accessories that I have found do not look anything like the stock grille and most of them look very cheap or out of place when they are installed on the Tacoma.

have you tried posting this question on http://www.customtacos.com/ or www.tacomaterritory.com/forums ? Only thing i could think of is sending the part off to a chrome shop and let them do it for you.
