Skid plate color

Just installed the toyota skid plate and it just doesnt look like I thought it would. Do you think I should leave it .....or have it painted black???

 

Black

 

From what I gather, the only acceptable trim color on Tacomaworld is black. That's what 90% of votes will be. Go spend $3 at Walmart and fix that fashionably unacceptable skid before the masses lynch you.

 

off. my opinion but black if you want to leave it on. i dont think it works for the tacomas

 

lol. i think it looks good as is.

This was the first thing I bought for my taco. It lasted all of 2 weeks before I painted it black. Of course my truck is black, however I gotta go with black for yours. It'll look better painted man. just my $0.02

 

I think it looks good as is.

 

and welcome to TacomaWorld armen

 

Ric'sTaco - would you have a pic of your truck with the black skid? Curious to see what the end product looks like.

 

thanks for the feedback It is really hard making up my mind on this one.....I have a friend who does spray in bedliners and he said that he would blast it for no charge. have you heard of anyone powder coating them gunmetal gray? what ever I decide I will post the pics asap.

 

I painted mine gunmetal gray. I love it. It doesn't "pop" as much as when it was silver but looks great nonetheless.

 

thanks, that looks b/a ...... did you have it painted or do it yourself?

 

black

 

I did it by myself. I took it off and sprayed 4 coats on it while i was mowing my lawn. I painted my badges the same color

 

Normally I really dislike all the black accessory stuff on the forums, but for your blue truck, I might actually have to agree just this once.

I have the stock black skid plate for my silver truck that came with the off road package, wish I had the silver accessory one instead. =/
