Haha, thanks for pointing that out! Right when I saw the "..." I knew I did something wrong . Thanks for making sure the right person gets in first. I was about to say the same thing as well. Patsawasy has first dibs, but if that goes down the drain, here is a pic of mine:



I'll take close-ups if the relation...uh, i mean,uh, deal becomes serious.

As far as I know yes, but if it comes to it, I'll take it out and take pics from all angles just to make sure.

EDIT: I just noticed we both don't have front license plates .

hahaha yeah ill take a pic first thing in the morning of the crack. i wont be offended if you go with someone else, but i gave the glue johb a pretty good shake and there was nothing of it. the crack is all behind the front of the grill anyways so you wouldent see it unless you took the grill out again. like i said ive had the 4runner for a year ahd dident even know it was there, but its repaired now. first thin tomorrow me and a camera

heres the outside for now. i just zip tied the mesh on for looks. the gutterguard modd from tr4.org. no holes holes drilled, but like i said ill take it out and take pics tomorrow as you can see its fine form exterior. and structurally as well



the dent in the bumper was from the previous owner, whom im almost sure was the cause of the crack, but it will be gone soon

Hey FireT, good talking with ya, I emailed you my pics. Bob did a writeup for those wanting the replica of the Satoshi grille, mine is slightly different in build, but looks similar and very solid. Good luck.

Just thought I'd add to this with mine. I also did mine slightly different, mostly with my use of perforated sheet metal vs. gutter block stuff. This perforated metal can take a bashing.
