    It’s an excellent idea. Be aware it will add 10mpgs but will double your oil change intervals.

    Very true. Did you know that with the right decals, you can add up to 50% more horsepower to your engine?

    I stand corrected, OP, I thought for sure those pictures would make you see things different. I do understand different folks like different things. Consider yourself lucky, for a $2.00 can of spray paint you can be happy, a nice set of sporty alum. is $$$$. Like said many times, it's yours, do what makes "YOU" happy. Good luck.

    I started with my wheels black, I have nothing against it, and t seemed every white vehicle I saw around here had black wheels. I dared to be different and went with white wheels matched to body color and I'm happy.

    I put 4runner TRD Offroad wheels on my SR5 and slapped a TRD Offroad decal on it. Did it because I thought I would like the look, but have been thinking about taking them off for a cleaner look anyways. More into simplicity than flashy

    First thing I did with my OR was fire up the heat gun and remove the decals. Then I plasti-dipped all the chrome badges, and got rid of the chrome grill and grill surround. Used a Pyrite surround and made a grill with an old FJ "TOYOTA" badge instead. All that chrome and stickering was too much flash for me. :D
