    If you know me im a big fan of blue all the machinery and fixtures in the shop are blue.

    I'm in love with this color such a deep vibrant blue.

    BBP it's a 2 coat process with a heavy metallic blue base coat and a transparent blue top coat.


    Base coat pre bake.

    That blue looks sharp. I think that's my second favorite behind the guy that had color matched black the other day. I might change my mind once I see white on my truck this weekend though.

    Yes one of those are yours I'm still working on the Tacoma Font so I haven't cut them just yet. You and two other guys are the only Tacoma text ordered.

    Maybe already covered somewhere in the 87- pages and i didn't see the answer but ... how does the backplate attach to the grille insert?

    It slides into the center bar and attaches with #10x24 stainless steel button head bolts into threaded nutserts. Then the center bar attaches to the main grille in the same method.

    you could have a nice addition to this grille If you had an option separately to order different colored back plates so people could swap colors from blue, inferno, white, etc as they see fit after the initial sale.

    plus swapping out your front colors will screw with people that don't know.
