I wish I knew you guys sold your own mesh before I made my buddies outta rain gutter mesh lmao, his still turned out amazing and I got it a 3D look so I’m still happy with how it turned out
For the “mesh backing” to fill in the holes, I just used aluminum foil from my kitchen. Worked just fine
Duuuude!!!! That’s dope!!! Lol... I’m gonna have to get one for my 3rd gen... nice!!!!
not 200$ cool
The do-it-yourself mesh piece starts at $49, not $200. Even with lettering or emblems it's less than $100
Thank you so much. My mesh and Toyota emblem are coming this Thursday and I’m so excited!
Awesome. Feel free to email over an installed pic when you have all finished 😃
customcargrills hey so I just realized that my grille is different, it’s a 2002 do you know any other videos that show how to do it for a 2002 grille?
I don't know of any videos that show a 99-02 grille specifically. As a general rule it's cheaper, quicker, & easier to use the 96-98 as a grille frame, even if you have a 99-02 model.
A 99-02 install could be possible but you'll be spending a lot more time doing body work and repairing the stock grille than the 96-98 model. I could make a video for that style grille, but I think most owners are better off using the 96-98 frame to begin with as a whole.
customcargrills yea I figured, thanks for the advise though. I bought a used 98 grille today so I just gotta wait for the rest of the materials to come
@@fayco1 Hi.. how did the grill came out
Gonna be making an attempt come Monday. My grill just came in the mail
Awesome! If you get stuck anywhere, or have some installed pics to share, feel free to email me.
Thank you very much for the video. I just purchased the mesh as well as the Toyota emblem. What Bondo would you recommend? I rather not spend $40 on the PLIOGRIP Plastic Repair.
Pliogrip is the cheap alternative to other plastic repair materials. You could use regular Bondo brand filler but it'll likely crack down the road since it's a fairly large repair area.
Nice, but the last Toyota emblem shown ( the large letters) where did you get it?

Can you show some pics of the grill I installed in the truck
We have some installed pictures in the "Customer Pictures" section of the product description on our website: www.customcargrills.com/Custom-Toyota-4Runner-1996-Grills.asp
Can you link me to the mesh material you used?
The pre-cut mesh piece for this is located here: www.customcargrills.com/Custom-Toyota-Grills.asp
Uncut sheets of the mesh are located here: www.customcargrills.com/Perforated-Grill-Mesh.asp
Will this grill fit a 99 Tacoma by any chance ?
It will not fit a 99 Tacoma, but we do have a kit for that on our website. The install video is here: th-cam.com/video/l2nphJyLgCQ/w-d-xo.html&lc
wouldn't the Goop adhere better to an unpainted surface?
Adhesion using the method in the video is quite strong. The area of the grill of which the mesh attaches to is raw. The powder coat finish is bonded to the mesh well too. Using adhesives on raw components is generally a good practice for best results but is not needed in all cases for a quality installation.
can you get the mesh unpainted? thanks
It would be possible, but it might be a bit of a wait before we'd ship since we typically make these in bulk.
What kind of mesh backing did you use?
It was just a scrap piece of the "HD Small Diamond" mesh that we stock. Nowadays I don't use the mesh backer on this specific install. I just use some tape as a backer and then remove the tape after the filler is cured.
Do you guys not ship to England? Wasn’t an option in the drop down menu.
As of January of 2023, we've been unable to ship to the UK due to new rules with HMRC and collecting VAT. For a while we were able to workaround this by selling through eBay but even eBay as of this year has been unable to straighten out the HMRC / VAT problem and is phasing out shipments there.
As of the time of this reply, we can't facilitate a transaction to the UK. We would like to ship there, and hopefully one day in the future we will be able to resume shipments to the UK but as of today we cannot.
@@customcargrillsThank you for the speedy response, that’s a shame. I’m just soo lazy are your finished grills look so good! Cheers.
I have a 2001 4runner. Would I have to use 1996-1998 grille? To do this mod? Or can I cut the grille that I have on right now and get the same result ? Can you guys make a video of 2001-2002 4runner
In short, it'll be quicker, cheaper, and easier to buy and use a 1996-98 grille frame than trying to modify the 1999-2002 version. I can make a video for the 1999-02 version but there's a lot of extra bodywork involved with repairing the area where that center bar needs to be cut from.
customcargrills so 1996-1998 grille can fit on 2001 ? Am I correct ?
@@rickyk8078 To the best of my knowledge, that is correct. If you go on the 4Runner message boards, you'll probably find multiple posts to confirm this.
nice ,,,,,i from costa rica ,,,,
Does the 96-98 grill fit the 2001 4runner?
Yes, the factory 96-98 4Runner grill will fit on a 2001 4Runner.
What about an 01 Limited? The Grille isn't quite the same. Thanks!
You'd need to first swap a 1996-98 grill on the 2001 first.
Where did you get the emblem with the white lettering?
We have these available here: www.customcargrills.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Toyota_OEM_Emblem
How difficult would this be to do with the “chrome” grill?
If you want to keep the chrome, it wouldn't be much more difficult at all. Just tape off the chrome area so that you don't damage the finish and do the mod normally.
If you want to strip the chrome and change the color, you're better off starting with an unpainted grille. Stripping the chrome is no fun and is super tedious.
@@customcargrills Thanks for the super quick reply. My brother has a black 3rd gen with chrome bumpers and grill. I think it would look really sharp to keep that chrome shell look with the classic TOYOTA lettering in white.
do you guys ship to guam
Yes, we sure do.
Will these fit on 94 4runners?
This specific piece only works for the 1996-98 (and 99-02's equipped with a 96-98 grille) models only.
We've now got something for the 1992-95's here: th-cam.com/video/-N1o-O_WyYM/w-d-xo.html
How do you attach a white Toyota Emblem to the mesh?
I have a video about that here (start around 3:30): th-cam.com/video/YXBcSdcxXqM/w-d-xo.html
Also in 1994?
We could probably make one for a ‘94. If

My1999 grille is much more bulk and overall ugly. Will I have to get a 96-98 grille for this project?
Yes, a 96-98 grille is required for this mod.
I sell 4runners for a living your right it is more bulky same with bumper but the good thing is you can put the 98 bumper to make it look cooler
You should just make the whole grill and sell it. I would buy
We do. It's here: www.customcargrills.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Toy_4R_96_FR
Goddamn this is way more work than I thought it would be, I’m returning mine
For those looking to not go through the installation process themselves, we do sell them pre-made here: www.customcargrills.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Toy_4R_96_FR
I don’t think this works on the limited models. Just fyi.
Why do you think it doesn't work on the Limited trim level?
@@customcargrills At least in my case, the 2000 toyota 4runner limited edition grill has the outer trim and a flush middle trim piece that holds the toyota logo. It is all one piece basically. This is opposed to the inset cross piece through the middle grill like some of the standard models which can easily be cut away.
That is the difference between the 1999-2002 models vs. the 1996-1998 models, not a difference in the Limited trim vs. other trim models. To do this mod, you need the 1996-1998 frame. That frame can be used on a 1999-2002 model.
@@customcargrills Does the 96-98 frame fit in the 2000 model? Having the same issue since my 2000 has the trim outside of the grill frame so i can't just cut it away
@@jacksonbates208 Yes, the 96-98 frame can fit a 99-02 model. Ideally it should be plug & play out of the box. The one and only thing that can sometimes be a potential issue is the female part of the mounting clip. Some 99-02 clips aren’t as tall as the 96-98’s. If this is an issue, there’s a few different fixes. Either make the clip taller, swap the clips, or cut off the attachment clips and bolt it on.
Hi.do you have a number. For ordering!!!
Hi, these can be ordered here: www.customcargrills.com/Custom-Toyota-4Runner-1996-Grills.asp If you need to call in the order, please use the number listed in the contact section of our website.
How is this a custom grill when you have to modify so much of it? Should be easy install. Lost interest.
