grill craft is more expensive dealer is only like 70 bux grillcraft is like 128. sry can't help ya with the install im gettin one also from the dealer. looks factory that way
The install is totally simple. The 2002 grille attaches using the same fasteners that hold the under-engine plastic panels on. You don't need to buy any new fasteners. The WW kit will not interfere with the fit unless it eliminates the plastic planels, wich I doubt it does.
All you'll need is a socket set or pliers. It took me about 5 minutes to install the 2002 grille on my 2000. Stick the grille in behind the front lip. Loosen the four nuts holding the plastic panels on. Pull the grille into position (there are guide tabs to help you do this). Make sure the plastic under-engine panels are back in place. Tighten the nuts to hold it all together and you're done.
The grille actually adds a little strength to the front lip and lower bumper. And it looks clean, simple and mostly functional.

pm blue bomber and get his grill
its cheap and simple to install and looks really good
i have the ww kit and blue bombers grill kit
ww does not interfere with the front or rear grille
(although if you have the rear ww bumper on it will cause a prob with trying to install bb's rear grille since the bumper kinda goes over the grill)

the cheapest place to get the 2002 lower grill is most likely West Covina Toyota at www.wctoyotasport.com

yeah but you will be shooting yourself in the foot if you have to replace your a/c condesor.

I got the factory grill because the home depot grill stood out too much. the factory grill sits farthur back and is not as noticable

It'll fit with the Wings West front lip. I just installed one on my friends Celica with no problems.
