Ordered mine yesterday from: parts@cochranetoyota.com
Email Josh, or go to website. PT228-35170
Paid $374.59 - - - Total charge on my card was: $385.83 Shipped
Add $11.24 to that because my credit card company adds 3% for currency exchange. They are located in Canada.
They've been selling so many that they just upped the price $25 so it's $425 Canadian. Exchange rate is around 1.28 to 1 Canadian.
So even with the $25 increase it should still come in under $400 U.S.
Best price I've been able to find, unless you know someone who works for/at Toyota I don't think you'll find a better deal.
They order 50 grilles every week and can barely keep up.
If you want I post my invoice

I'm ordering a TRD Sport too! Love the look with the hoop scoop. If you like the Pro Grille, but don't want to spend the money right now you can give Plasti-Dip a try.
Fast, easy, and only cost $12 - $15

In that second pic the guy also did the front valance/plastic piece where the license plate is mounted. Like the Off Road models, he also did the fender flares black.
Exactly what I'm going to be doing! It's a Sport but will look like the Off Road model, until you see the front of it then it will look like the TRD Pro model.

@normagene That looks great! Where did you get it done?
I saw this yesterday and it looked great. The black has a little shine to it and they left the chrome around the outside and on the logo. Looked great in person. They also had some nice KO2 tires on here and removed the TRD Sport stickers on the back. This is a tempting combo for me. I'm not sure I'd trust myself to paint the grill though.

That's not my truck, I'm ordering mine in Super White! So my theme will be all Black & White!

Ya I'll probably remove the decal too. Plasti-Dip also makes a product called glossafier or something like that, it adds a little shine. Personally I prefer it more of a Matte look.
Ya some guys leave the Toyota emblem chrome, or even spray it a close color match to the truck.
As far as "not trusting yourself to do it" just go on YouTube, tons and tons of vids of guys doing just about anything imaginable to their trucks.
You'll be blown away as to how EASY it is to do. Plasti-Dip is not permanent, it's like a rubber coating of whatever color you are using, and if/when you tire of it, simply peel it off. It has zero effect to the paint, other than protecting it from the elements.
Plasti-Dip will be one of my first mods! The emblems, fender flares, and the front valance piece.
That's why I've already named it the "MUTANT TACO"
Sport model, but from a distance it will look more like the Off Road model, and from the front it will look like the TRD Pro model. I already ordered the TRD Pro grille!
Pretty crazy, this week I should have my TRD Pro wheels, BFG K02 tires, AVS Bugflector II & Window Ventvisors, and already got my tailgate Matte Black TOYOTA decals.
AND I DON'T EVEN HAVE THE TRUCK YET......LOL
