What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

In the states you guys can get them for less than 500$,,, up here in Canada

 

That's next on my list.

 

That's for a Gen2. BPFab doesn't make Gen3 grills yet, but Customcargrills does almost exactly the same.

 

I upgraded mine to LEDs, and I can see great! just got some off eBay.

 

Plast-dipped badges and grill. I'm pleased with how it came out!

 

i cant figure out which ones are compatible. They dont have the 2016 tacoma referenced.

 

Recently brought home my first Tacoma. Love it in black and I felt the black and chrome worked best together, but still thought the chrome grill was a little too much. I've seen lots of plastidipping and thought I'd share. Think it turned out really well!








Let me know what you think.

 

Try check super bright leds.

 

Truthfully, it looks terrible with the two chrome lines

 

Looks great IMHO. Would you mind taking a few shots of the truck from directly in front of it with the camera at hood level? I would like to photoshop that look onto my truck and it would be easier with a head on shot.

Eye of the beholder I guess. I was looking at it and thinking it was the first one of these "dipped grills" I really liked. I might do some photoshop and see if its something I would want on my truck.

 

Looks nice. First one I've seen like that!

 

Came out classy. Good job.

 

Thanks for the feedback; to each his own I suppose. First attempt with plastidip and happy with the look. Luckily, it's easily removed if I don't like it down the road.

Thanks! Felt like too much chrome as it came stock. The other plastidips I've seen make it look like a big black hole in the front of the truck. Think this is a good option without replacing the grill completely.

Thanks!

 

I like it. I think it looks original, different than most others. That is exactly what I am planning to do.

 

If you do the grille comes off with 2 bolts and like two clips in about one minute. It's three pieces that come apart easily once off (the body colored part, chrome bezel and grille). Might be easier working something with this detail off the truck so you spend less time masking pieces you don't want to spray.

 

Nice!! That's what I am thinking of doing to mine

 

Definitely good advice for people thinking about doing this. Pretty OCD and took a lot more time masking than actually spraying.

 

I saw mine taken off lol. I was like even I could do that...and I'm bad at this stuff.

Once off the truck taking the three pieces apart was like 4 minutes...12 clips and 12 screws....something like that. Still super straight forward though.

 

Have been tossing around the idea too.

Dr Dave, thanks for posting the pics... I like that a lot better than the all chrome look.

 

Nice! First one I've seen like that.
