    Wow, gold? I laughed, but then thought I know a football team that is blue and gold and those colors are cool. Then I thought nah black well maybe gold but black is more common, but gold is unique, true but .... then I wondered what others thought ....

    Depends...what's the look you're going for? Street styling? The gold might work. Macho off-road? Almost can't go wrong with basic black.
    Basically, it comes down to whatever color you see matched with the Blue that makes you go "Wow, THAT'S cool!"

    Gold; no.
    How about two-tone bronze for the grill/surround? Barret Bronze and Burnt Bronze by Cerakote, maybe.

    If you do that, you have to get gold spinner wheels for the full effect! :)

    the gold looks ugly. i would do it in gloss black, as well as all the badges. make it look like it came from the factory, clean and simple. just my .02

    Blue is one of the few colours the grill looks good on with the chrome.

    I don't think I've even seen a blue one at my dealership yet.

    Black and blue. Can't go wrong. Subtle yet stylish. Leave the grill alone. Just MHOimage.jpg

    Well....I think he might be referring to the Subaru type of Blue/Gold combo...I think its more of a Blue/Bronze combo though. Looks good on Subi's, not sure about the Taco. However, as long as you look at your truck and say "man..I love it", that's all that matters.

    I think the TRD gunmetal color wheels would look good, however they only come in 17x7. I like to keep things OEM sized, and would prefer 17x7.5 for my TRD sport.
