Chrome Grill - Toyota Yaris Forums

I like this style, dont dig the chrome. Does anybody know if it comes in a paintable finish? Also, are there any semi-local shops that sell these? Im looking to buy 2, theyre inexpensive on ebay but charge $20.50 a piece to ship them!

I got mine from japanparts.com
It's the original from toyota then, so you can have it in any color.

That chrome is hideous. I'm sure you could probably sand it down and paint it flat black. It probably has the same fake chrome type of finish as the toyota badges on our cars.

Yeah , I hate that chrome grille , shits ugly as sin LOl ! I have the same one and I'm about to paint it blacksandperal to match the car . I plan on just giving it a light sanding , clean it with rubbing alcohol , priming it , paint it , then clear it . It should come out good .

Bling does seem out of place on the Yaris IMHO.

But whatever you prefer should be perfectly alright; afterall, it's your car.
