@Kaisersosay can you post the # you ordered. I found it difficult to make sure it was black and not the stock color when I looked it up.

I did not input any vehicle information. I only used the part number to look it up. The part number I used was 5310160350. That is the number on the box as well. I do not think it said whether it was black or chrome. But it is black.

Cool can't wait to see a pic! And yes crazy how fast they can get it here and some places I order in the US take all week or longer.

One way to be sure it's not chrome is to put the part number in a US Toyota parts supplier website like camelbacktoyotaparts. The black grill part number will not show up or say part not found.
I tried to find the black side moldings but could not. Do you happen to have part numbers?

Yes I have them, I’ll have to dig up the receipts. Will probably make a separate post.

Here is the grill installed on my 2007.
These look soooo good. But I’m having a hard time not going with the $10 plastidip solution, which will look nearly identical, at least until it starts to peel.... how did you guys decide these were worth the $300 cost difference?

That's enough for me to justify the cost, along with rocks chipping the paint plus it's an Oem part.
PartsOUQ is no joke,
It was cheaper for me to get my CDL engagement switch from them on eBay and shipped crazy fast.
They were cheaper than McGeorge which is wild.
This grill looks awesome guys.
May need to bookmark this topic for sure.
Thanks OP for the insight!

Same here. I’ve looked everywhere and I don’t think these exist anymore.

They are now discontinued for the 98-02 grilles. However if you are still after a black grille and don’t want to take the easy route of painting over the chrome. You can strip the chrome with Muriatic acid diluted in water. Please use caution and read all warnings and wear protective gloves, goggles and or face shield. This can be bought at any Lowe’s as it’s used for cleaning concrete. You need about 4-5 gallons and a large plastic tote to submerge the grille in. Process takes several weeks to fully strip a 100 series grille.

@sr5pickup do you have an "after" pic?

It’ll be more of a flat black once fully stripped. I used SEM satin black to give it a more satin finish.
Tangentially related: Whoa, where’d you score the ROW bumper with winch cover???

Correct. Emblem has 3 small Philips screws on the backside.

The bumper is just aftemarket sourced locally and it comes in satin black. Added the fog light deletes and the winch cover is from Partsouq. I cut out a portion of the bumper behind the cover to make space for a winch but sold it before I could get there.
