Quick answer: an OEM (genuine Toyota) TRD Pro grille gives you factory parts and typically costs several hundred dollars or more. An aftermarket TRD Pro style grille gives you the same look for much less, usually around $150-$320 at OffRoadUSA depending on your truck and options. The trade-off is that aftermarket grilles are not Toyota parts, and compatibility with Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) and front cameras depends on the specific grille.

When aftermarket makes sense
- You want the TRD Pro look for a fraction of the price.

FAQ
Is an aftermarket TRD Pro grille the same as OEM?
No. It copies the TRD Pro look but is not made by Toyota.
Will an aftermarket grille break my adaptive cruise control?
On 2018-2023 Tacomas with TSS, our grilles keep the radar working when you add the TSS garnish sensor cover option.
How much cheaper is aftermarket?
Usually a fraction of OEM. Our Tacoma 2016-2023 grille starts at $153.99 with free shipping to the lower 48.
