    Might be. My biggest issue is the letters don't work with the 40th Anniversary Bronze OEM overlays but the spray paint seems to have taken care of it well enough for my liking. $300 for just the part with the letters from Toyota is pretty crazy.

    Absolutely agree. When I wash the car I like to spray the black cover piece with ceramic wax spray to keep it from fading in the sun. Mine looks like new still.

    I had the opposite experience. I originally had the Cartrimhome grill and the fit was crappy and the finish started peeing after a couple years. Bit the bullet for the OEM piece and the quality was much better.

    I must have looked at the plastic gauge cover wrong when i was figuring out where to mount the wideband a/f gauge. 2nd time replacing this ultra soft plastic part. Playing with 3M clear protection film but can't get it installed without glue lines.
