    2014 TRD Off-Road 4x4 Access Cab
    Just got these bad boys put on the new rig today. I had the silver lips powder coated matte black like another member on here. Also planning on plasti-derping the badges sometime soon too.

    I'm not a big fan of the silver TRD hub cap so I may black that out. Ideally I could black out the silver part and keep the red TRD, but that seems super difficult. Doe anyone know of a material to paint on TRD part of cap then spray entire cap with plasti-derp then peel off the part over the TRD?

    Try filling the etched letters with hot glue, painting and then carefully pulling off the glue.

    I have the black trd wheels and have been thinking about painting them a different color. I think the bronze would look good on my white truck.

    Thanks guys!

    Good call!Hot glue is pretty harmless so I think it would be a good choice.

    Bone stock. For now.
    Those are gorgeous! I love the bronze, but I'm a little biased.

    I'm liking how the bronze coordinates with the color! Not a huge fan of the black trim rings, but if you're a fan, that's what matters.

    If you've got the black ones now, I bet you could find someone to get you the bronze ones and give you some cash in the deal for your black ones. They are still very much in demand.

    Looks Sharp!

    I suggest hot wax in lieu of the hot glue

    I've been hoping to find a set later on when I lift mine. I'm not really wanting to pay new prices, so we'll see. But, I do like the bronze and pyrite together. Congrats on the new wheels.

    I saw some of those at a dealership the other day and really liked them. Those would look nice on my truck. Very cool
