Grill and bumper painted in the middle??

Has anyone done this to a tacoma??...i am wondering if the grill painted black and the center of the bumper would look good just like this vw???

 

Photoshop thread...

 

i think ive seen a x runner with this idea..but i cant find it

 

I have seen the X-Runner too. I think they call it the EVO mod.

 

Here's what I found for the "EVO mod"

 

Do you mean the center valance?? Here's mine with the center blacked out

 

Wait, here's probably what you're looking for. Looks pretty good to me. I don't know about it being on a regular or lifted truck. Looks good on the X-Runner though.

 

if the center of the bumper were painted all the way up to the top of the grill white..then this would be the reverse negative of what im looking for

 

yes thats it but also the grill surround black too ..i wonder how that would look

 

I don't know about painting the whole grill.

 

Those x runners look sick.

 

x2

I want one...keep my current taco aswell! Hmmmmmmm

 

Did you paint it or use vinyl?

 

BoBo did you paint your grill with flat black spray paint?? Or what did you use?it looks so sick. Pleeeez let me know!!!

 

I did mine and it turned out good, all with a spray can!

 

I've had mine done for awhile. I used 3M rubberized undercoating. Worked out great. Just need to make sure you sand down the area and clean it really well.

 

Not my truck. That was another truck and I was asking if how he did it. But, others chimed in saying they rattle canned it. But, I thought I read some used vinyl which would mean I could save the painting effort - not that vinyl in that location looks to be a trivial application and not sure you can get vinyl in flat black. Since I have the paint equipment and ford black I will do it myself just need some low/no gloss clear for protection of the paint.

 

what guy is that?????

 

I like it...alot.

 

That has a cool look to it.
