Driving on a snow/slush covered road when a car came flying by and sprayed frozen slush all across the front, breaking the grill, fang, and shutter.

Yea it sucks, and ruined my hunting season, but it could have been worse I suppose lol
Yeah, well it could have been worse, but that still sucks.

Ice can damage your truck pretty much like large rocks will. Nasty stuff. I bet that is going to cost some money to replace the broken bits.

Oh yea, got on the windshield too and I'm honestly surprised it didn't shatter it.
$925 for all 3 parts shipped. Local dealer wanted $740 for just the shutter.

If it's helpful at all, Fred Anderson Toyota has an extra 25% off parts sale going on. It stacks onto the normal 25-30% off they usually have. Free shipping as well

Hopefully it is just the shutter and not something worse.
Yep, it's the shutter. There are multiple slats that are broken, and I would assume that it tried to actuate and close and couldn't because of those slats.

From what I can tell from the previous threads about the shutter issues with the connections getting water in them, it is perfectly fine to drive.
