Default opinions on grille needed

Folks,

Do you think this grille would look better on my truck or should I leave it as is? eBay Motors: 2007 07 2008 08 TOYOTA TUNDRA BLACK MESH GRILLE GRILL (item 260345978846 end time Feb-11-09 12:52:07 PST)

I was also considering going with a white grille surround and going with white door handles and going back to the all black mirrors.

What do you think?

I've attached a picture of the current grille and one from the side so you can see the door handles and mirrors.

Thanks.

It looks kinda off with the plastic pc in place, sp unless they've got a mesh piece for the uni-brow to match the grill, I'd stick with what ya got.

I think I've got the same CW kit as you cept' I have the T cut out, I painted mine black and am happier.

That's the same as the Grillcraft mx sport mesh. I saw it up close and it looks awesome.

Its cheaper from Grillcraft.

I'd leave your truck the way it is.
I have the identical truck with that grill and love it. I just bought some 20's for her but i was wondering if you have a leveling kit in the front of yours?
looks mint though!

Yes, looks like the same grille for less money. I found out that installing this grille requires removing the stock grille. I'm not a fan of that.

And yes, I have a two inch leveling kit in the front. Sits very close to level. Had to adjust the headlights. The passenger side needed adjusting anyway.
