    I think they were $800 so not much more than OEM

    They also recommend never changing transmission fluid. That's BS also

    No, you should change that as well as headlight fluid every 5K along with your engine oil. It's your truck, maintain it or don't, really doesn't matter. Will you still get 500K out of it? Probably, it's a Toyota. Is changing my oil every 5K rather than 10K very cheap peace of mind? Absolutely and your oil can never be too clean. Bottom line, for the extra $50 a year it costs me, I'm perfectly fine with it.

    No offense taken. You have to admit, the symmetry, fit and finish in the placement of the tag clearly establishes my DIY skill level as a cut above.

    Judging by the provided picture. I’m thinking it was professionally installed. Do you have a video demonstrating you installing it? It seems too perfect to have been done by hands of a mere mortal...

    I have to be honest, Busch Lite may be due some credit there. Its the PED of choice in my DYI projects.

    Toyota is kind enough to provide the dimples if you ever want to start all over from scratch and really get crazy with some DIY skills.

    I also have a 100% genuine OEM front plate mount with hardware. 100% mint condition never been opened. I'd let it go for $350 plus shipping.

    Yes. The can’t show the letters because of copyright laws. They stick on using knock off 3m body molding double stick tape. I went to the local auto parts store and bought the real 3m tape because I read some reviews where folks said the tape that came with it was cheap and didn’t stick well.
