Overview
The T-Rex Grilles 20897B is a black billet hood scoop grille bolt-on insert for 2006–2008 Toyota 4Runner and 2005–2010 Toyota Tacoma models. It has a horizontal style and a black powder-coated aluminum finish.
The insert is designed for quick bolt-on fitting with fewer tools and no cutting. The billet stock is T-5 or T-6 aluminum rather than extruded material, and each grille has a glossy powder coat followed by a three-stage polish and cleaning. It is produced in Southern California.
Key features
- Billet aluminum construction

- Bolt-on design that requires no cutting
- Direct fit listing for selected 2006–2008 4Runner and 2005–2010 Tacoma models
Scoop fit and finish care
A hood scoop insert sits in an opening that sees road spray, sun and debris, so its finish matters as much as its fit. Billet aluminum with a powder coat holds up well to routine washing, but abrasive pads and strong solvents can dull the surface. Wiping off road grime soon after a drive keeps the edges from collecting residue that is harder to remove later.
Because the insert bolts onto the scoop, alignment is worth checking before the fasteners are fully tightened. Look at the gap around the edges and confirm the insert sits level. Recheck the fasteners after the first few drives, since vibration can loosen them and shift the insert slightly over time.
- Wash with mild soap and water
- Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents
- Check alignment before final tightening
- Recheck fasteners after the first drives
