    Nice choices on your truck, looks good!

    Deer suck out here (I'm in Fuquay-Varina). I have to dodge those damn things at least 3x a month!

    Well done. Welcome to the color-matched, scoopless club. Looks a helluva lot better than the chrome doesn't it?

    Sure does! I'm thinking about having my rear bumper color matched too at some point.

    I got price quotes on that and it's something like $500 give or take just for the part.

    For that money, might as well go straight to an offroad plate-steel bumper. That's my plan.

    Insurance covered the cost of the parts that belonged on the truck, i had to pay the retail difference which ended up being $100.

    If anyone is looking for good prices are OEM parts though, Mark Jacobsen Toyota of Durham has a wholesale parts website. The smoked headlights are $210 each vs. $296 each and the color macthed grill is $159 vs $224. I also picked up a TRD quick shifter from them (not found on website) for $275 which is about $50 less than anywhere else that I could find.

    I got a quote of $200 from the shop that did the work on my truck to spray my chrome bumper.

    Highly doubt it would look the same, and not taking the chance.
