    So I have a Silver Streak Mica 06 DCSB SR5. I am going to paint all the badges black and I am going to either paint or powder coat the wheels black.

    Question, should I paint/powder coat the rear chrome bumper black or try and find one off a Sport model that is color matched?

    I have the same truck but mine is a trd sport, I had the color matched bumper but it was roughed up and dupli-colors "color match" is shit. Ended up plasti-dipping my bumper and I love it. Pics in my gallery

    It looks good. Gonna have to go that route until its time for a high clearance one.

    That's what I am doing. I have chrome, and just couldn't stand living with it until the day came when I bought or built a high clearance bumper. So, I just plasti-dipped it for now. Later I'll see what I can get for it, and hopefully the chrome will still look nice for it's new owner.
