4runner4lyfe-you're right on clearlights.com. They had a preorder on there up until about a couple of weeks ago. I guess it got scrapped for some reason. I guess our best shot is Jason B. now. Which I would have gone with him anyway.

My tint is 5% over factory on the back and 20% on the front two windows. Thanks for the compliments, they are greatly appreciated. I got the full grill and valance because I needed the grille and valence themselves since I got a front end collision. It was more cost effective to get the grille and valance with billet installed and saved a lot of hassle. I have talked to a few people who have installed just the insert into their grille and they said that it wasn't too difficult. If you have anymore questions let me know.

I didn't replace the bumper when I did all of this. In order to get the billet you only need to replace the grille and valance. The bumper is seperate from the valance. The grille was $280 and the valance was around $275. However, I don't see the valance with billet insert anywhere on the website anymore.

ok, so wait.the grille is just the around pretty much around the lights correct? then the bumper is the think chromed part below it? then under that is the valance?

if i order the billet insert, i should be able to cut it to fit into the valance, but i may put two driving lights in there anyways.

Yeah you're right on the descriptions for the parts. Look at Stretch786 profile on here. He has a billet grille with the valance cut out housing two driving lights. It looks great.
