    So I have a silver Tacoma and can get a great deal on a cap for it. The only problem is that it's black. Does anyone have any pictures of mismatched tacos or advice one way or the other?

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Black will look great. Roll with it.

    IMO black could work if you incorporate a black/silver theme.

    Like paint your wheels, bumpers, grille, etc black too. It'll make the cap blend more.

    That looks good Meatman. Like I previously posted, you have just the right amount of black elsewhere to really tie that topper in.
