Updated Grille
So I put an '06 grille on my '02. Much more of a hassle than I thought it would be.
Required:
Grille
grille supports
3 trim pieces, below grille and around/below lights
^^^ get these painted
cut the center lower trim to fit
I'd do a write-up, but I don't think anyone else is crazy enough to do this...

The white one is an '06 that I'm wholesaling to a dealer in Dallas. It was the victim of the grille swap 
If you had the trim pieces painted and ready to go, I'd say it's a 30 min job, 20 of which is cutting the center trim piece to fit. For someone who didn't have a "free" grille and supports, nor wholesale pricing on the trim pieces and paint... it's probably a $700 mod. Pretty expensive for a grille update.

The rims were freebies. I ganked them off of another LX I was wholesaling & just paid $40 labor to swap them...
The clear corners came from eBay, something like $50...

Some Tundra 20"s would sure look nice on there.
You should look into cleaning up that license plate with a frame or something too. It's distracting since the rest of the front of your truck looks amazing.
