The eighth-gen Toyota Hilux has been round since 2015 and regardless of two consecutive facelifts in 2017 and in 2020 it has began exhibiting its age when it comes to styling. For many who would love a visible refresh, Japanese tuner GMG Double Eight is providing a customized bodykit that makes the Hilux appear like a clone of the bigger and significantly newer Tundra.

Surprisingly for an aftermarket job, the visible upgrades may very well be mistaken for an additional facelift, with the traces of the Tundra trying fairly good on the Hilux.

The spotlight of the bodykit is the redesigned entrance fascia, sending Tundra vibes. It features a huge octagon grille with a honeycomb sample, a black skid plate, GR-style Toyota lettering, and three yellow marker lights making the Hilux appear like a full-size pickup. The brand new vertically-positioned bumper intakes are linked with the inventory headlights, whereas a beauty hood scoop is mounted on the inventory bonnet.

The remainder of the bodywork stays largely unchanged, apart from the vast fender add-ons. These are body-colored with stamped parts to make them look extra rugged. The pictured automobile can also be fitted with a brand new set of impasse alloy wheels shod in grippy A/T tires and fairly presumably a elevate equipment, additional bettering its visible enchantment and off-road credentials.

There aren’t any mechanical modifications, which signifies that the Toyota Hilux retains its inventory 2.4-liter turbodiesel with 147 hp (110 kW / 150 PS) in JDM-spec, or the two.8-liter turbodiesel with 201 hp (150 kW / 204 PS) elsewhere on the planet. We guess that the bodykit is appropriate with all Hilux variants, together with the GR Sport.

The price for the upgrades is ¥235,000 ($1,630) for the entrance bumper, ¥5,000 ($35) for the grille’s interior mess, ¥8,000 ($55) for the yellow marker lights, ¥95,000 ($659) for the fender add-ons, and ¥58,000 ($402) for the bonnet scoop. In complete, the entire equipment by GMG Double Eight prices ¥388,000 ($2,692). Notice that each one aforementioned costs are for unpainted objects and exclude taxes and transport prices.
