3rd Gen Magnetic Gray Thread

265/75/16 duratracs, 16x8 methods, stock suspension. Only broke 1 tpms sensor on the install!

 

Is that a color matched bumper or is it just the lighting in the picture?

 

Color match. Now that you mention it I thought the TRDOR came with the fake chrome. This looks though

 

I've seen several of the other colors in the OR with color-matched but never a MGM. Do you have a picture of it from another angle? Trying to decide if I want to switch from chrome to black or MGM.

 

Has anyone measured the paint thickness on the MGM. I know it's a two stage paint. And I know different panels have different thickness. Can anyone with a paint thickness reader do a map of paint thickness?

I'm an avid detailer and just wanted to know how much clear coat and paint I have to work with.

 

I'll go out right now and take a hopefully better pic....brb

 

Awesome! Thank you!

 

The color matched bumper comes with the premium and technology package for all colors. It's chrome less the p&t package

 

The sunlight makes it look lighter but it's not. Matches perfect. Hope this helps

 

That looks really ba. I might have to do that! Thanks for running out and taking the pics!

 

good to have another @Aussiek2000 is as well

are you on the g8 pages?

 

What's up. Post a pic of your car

 

agreed, also, what spacers are you running? Your truck looks great and I stole it to show the wife to get her interested in lifting hers, it worked!

 

I have an a.r.e v series cap for mgm dcsb trdof the color matching is slightly off Just barely darker. The owner of trucker toy stores Jacksonville Nc said it's usually never an exact match but I'm just frustrated that my $2200 cap isnt an exact match., the owner said there's nothing they can do, is this standard all around has anyone heard anything similar to this ,should I just let it go or does anyone have anysuggestions on what I could do?

 

Our color is one of the hardest to match.

Maybe he'll give you a discount if he sees how dissatisfied you really are.

 

What's up , I'm new to the forum got my truck in May forums been a Lot of help!

Here's a pic of my truck

 

Nothing you can do. You can paint two items from the same bucket of paint and have them come out in different shades. Temperature, humidity, light, everything plays a role.

The only way to get a perfect match is to blend the paint, and that won't happen for a canopy painted off the truck.

The sooner you accept it, the better you'll sleep.

 

I'm glad my friends on Tacoma world can give me piece of mind.

 

Sweet! Tire size!?
