3rd Gen Magnetic Gray Thread

Thanks. I like them on that truck. They look sharp. Wondering how much they weigh. Maybe 30lbs?

 

Should be able to look it up somewhere. Lots for sale on ebay.

 

4 month Old... Still saving for a bigger mod..

 

Looks clean bro. What did you use to paint your center hubs on your wheels?

 

Valley of Fire, NV

 

What sliders and slimline bumper do you have?

 

What color are your vinyl letters and how are they holding up? Got the same grill myself but feel like I need something to break up the black on my Quicksand.

TIA

 

RCI Sliders, SSO Bumper

Check my profile under information and its all listed on there also

 

They're "Charcoal Grey Metallic (MGM)" as noted from the seller on eBay, they're holding up great! I believe the seller is actually on here, and I highly recommend him. I messed up install two of the letter O's and he shipped me two new ones for free, even though it was my mistake.

Awesome, thanks for the info! Any tips on how/why you messed up the install so I can try to hopefully avoid that?

 

The O's are difficult because there's no middle support and it's longer. With the vinyl being soft and flexible, I just couldn't get the shape perfect when laying down the vinyl so it's a little elongated. Then I would try to fix it which made it stretch more and presented bubbles/creases as a final result. I went through 4 O's total, and the one on my truck still isn't perfect.

 

I used krylon gloss spray paint for plastic and also remove the center toyota logo and painted gloss red...

 

Thanks for the info bud.

 

Big Upgrade.

 

It’s amazing how big the Taco’s have gotten since the 80’s and 90’s without actually noticing it inside the cab.

This was my first Taco. And I think it still looks awesome today.

 

Has anyone painted their stock sr5 wheels black? Thinking about it since I scratched up the back wheels when I got stuck the other day

 

I’ve only heard of people Plastidipping their wheels. And it seems pretty easy to do and really cheap.

 

I've dipped stuff before.. but wheels are a different story lol plus with powder coating they actually look like a gloss black. I don't mind dipping but prefer powdercoat

 

You can dip and add a gloss on top of it. There is a good thread in the wheels and tires section where they discuss dipping/powder coating. It’s on the first or second page. I was just looking through it yesterday.
