    Recently bought a 2018 Tacoma TRD OR in quicksand. Loving some of the pics I am seeing in this thread! A few questions:

    -For those of you who replaced the grille with the TRD PRO grille and painted the "TOYOTA" lettering to match the quicksand color, what paint did you use?

    -Sorry if this sounds dumb, I havent done a ton of research yet...When lifting the truck and adding bigger tires, does this affect the speedometer in any way? Is a chip needed to re-calibrate?

    -Typically by adding bigger tires, how much should I expect my MPG to drop? I know it varies by tire size, but if I do a 2-3 inch lift and add slightly bigger tires than stock, what would you estimate my MPG to drop by?

    Thanks!

    Got my faux pro with OEM garnish on last night, wasn’t bad at all. Had to make a trip to the store for some super glue to secure the garnish, but for a few hundred bucks savings I’m happy with it. Paint match on the vinyl emblem stickers is better in natural light.

    For tires, I had stock street P-245/75-r16 and went to Falken Wildpeaks AT3W in P-265/75-r16 and dropped to 19mpg highway. Stock tires gave 22 mpg highway. I have the 3.5-L v6.

    Love the look. What paint did you use on the TOYOTA emblem? And did you just use a small paint brush?

    Got my windows re tinted today much darker and a light 70% film on the windshield. I love the difference it makes. What you can’t see is the new 10k winch in the back, headed to pick up my sso bumper tomorrow!
