Replace grill on gen1

Replace grill on gen1

Postby vSolara » Sun Jul 31, 2011 9:51 am

We all know how terrible our gen1 grill's look after ten years of being on the road, so I'm interested in replacing it. Toyota stealership quoted me almost 200 for one, but I found one on ebay for 80.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Also, how would I get the toyota emblem off and put it on the new grill?

Thank you
