cool badging
I kinda like how TOYOTA is spelled out on the grille. Is that a custom job or something they did on Japanese models?
Pretty cool if some US 4R did that

Yeah, that definitely adds an old school touch in my mind. Reminds me of my 72' FJ-40...The lettering and font style is almost identical. If any of you learn more about this, let us know. Thanks.

That's Satoshi's Surf. I've bookmarked that page since I saw it years ago. I love the grille, looks kustom. I'm with fourunnabilly and say that's a Land Cruiser emblem. Looks like he formed a frame and tacked on some mesh...paint it black, attach the TOYOTA emblem...oh yeah, cut out the inner guts of a '98 grille and you have that look. The boys in Japan have a ton of stuff and their Surfs look killer wether it's dropped or lifted. I just may attempt that grille again...was all set to do it and got sidetracked...it's uber kool.

They were from a Tundra and the guy was selling them...they were a special order from Japan...over 3K only a month old and were for sale...2K. I wanted them sooo bad.:cry:
