    So I just got a new 2018 TRD off road Tacoma... I’ve ordered some decals to match the inferno color and it looks good however I wanted everyone’s opinion on if this is too much? I don’t want to over do it with too much inferno since the decals look more of an orange. I was thinking about going with a different color for the vents?

    too much in my opinion, I think just the shifter, vents, and TACOMA lettering would look great. leave the dash trim black.

    Well you asked for opinions. But all that really matters is yours...... that said

    IMHO it's too F&F looking.

    The hood scoops are nice but upgrading to one is probably pretty pricey.

    You might be able to find somebody that's willing to trade or is selling for cheap. Check the hood swapping and trading thread

    I like more of a low profile interior personally, but that looks good. If you like it, rock it.

    On the vents I'd only cover the chrome trim around them if anything. I'm going to paint my dash trim and try to match the red of the trd stickers.

    if I change anything it would probably be the vent rings.... I think i might go all black to tone down the colors

    All the pieces were painted at a body shop using factory paint. The hardest one is the ac controls only because I didn’t know how to do it at first. The steering wheel controls are easy. I suggest disconnecting the negative on the battery first for safety. Then you remove the two plastic covers on each side of the steering wheel and back the torx screws all the way out. They can not fall out. Then you just move the airbag in front of the cluster. The two controls are then easily removed just make sure you hold the actual controls together because the screws holding the trim hold the controls together as well. I taped mine.
