I’m picking up a 2006 Lexus LX 470 today! Very excited as person I’m buying it from has done everything eg tb, H20 pump new radiator etc. I really like your content Grill looks great with your 100!!
I like the 06-07 grille, but the upgrade looks nice! I especially like the 06-07 grille here in Denmark, because most LC’s are from 98-05 (with the old grills) so if you have the 06-07 you can assert your dominance easily (which I do all the time, of course 😆) Nah, jk. Love that you make more LC vids, it was the reason I subscribed to you (you make the best LC videos), so keep them coming!
there is a spray called "Mr. Super Smooth and Clear" which i use on my model kits. It retains the color of the plastic while giving it a slight matte finish. If you don't want your grille to look shiny i'd suggest trying that
Did anybody else catch that the install of the bottom tabs of the new grill is actually the uninstall of the bottom tabs of the old grill, played in reverse?
Looks fine and will improve when it naturally dulls. You may miss being able to run your nail along the delaminated chrome on old grill to produce "hail hitting the window" sounds. Of course you can still keep it for that.
Eh, I work from home so I don't put a ton of miles on. Would be nice to get something more fuel efficient but I still like the LC for trips and off roading, so this is the best choice for me right now..

Here we go Kurt. This is what I love about your channel. Can’t wait to see what your next project car is.
Looks good man. The front grille is one of the easiest things to change on a 100 series.

Thanks for the tip!
Looking forward to some more land cruiser content!
Do you think you could elongate the holes with a file? I wonder if the tension from being bent to fit will cause the tabs to break.
Great idea actually!

Looks good. Thanks for letting us know where to source the grill.
Thanks!
Nice, just need to spray the bumper and polish headlights 👍🏻
Looks good. I would plastidip/ paint the emblem black to match the look. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks Raymond. Good call, but I like the contrast.
Kurt, driving that gas guzzler in CA where gas costs $4.50 a gallon now? By the way the original grille looks much better.

Exactly😳💯💯💯
I drive my 06 7 days a week😳😬😁💯💯💯💯
The grill you have bought is actually an 03-05 grill , that's the reason the fitment isn't proper
maybe use cable tie but glad it fit
Looks amazing
Thank you!
you should make more vids going over any mods or maintenance on your land cruiser
I'll do one in the near future changing the spark plugs if you're interested in that.
Looks good!
I would have hit the grill with a little matte clear.
Definitely better than stock. You need wheel spacers. ;)
Looks good ☺️
Miss the ISF content
Would be a great garage...
Japanese SUV and sports car

I thought lc100 was only made in Japan 🤔
Yeah they’re all built in Japan. I Wonder Wut must’ve been goin through his head lol 😆
I meant sold in the US, not made.
Love the new look 👍🏽👍🏽 could u please put in link for this grille so I can look into gettin one thank u!
Added a link in the description, although it looks like it is temporarily out of stock. The brand was called Qirun so be on the lookout for that!
@@EatSleepDrive Dunno what you did... it looks like that seller has shut down his shop entirely. :)
I would take the original over that black grill any day...
Yes💯💯💯💯💯🇺🇸
Nice grille

The internet exists and n the Middle East and shipping from China is pretty close
You need to clean your heAdlights.
Seems very pricey.
Looks like you been hitting the gym bruh
💪
Maybe I'm a purist but I love the original grille way more. This things ugly.
factory is much better.
black gloss = poor man's luxury trim
that grill sorta looks weird 🥴
