Beautiful day today, so I did a couple cheap mods

I woke up to a sunny and beautiful day today, so I decided to wash my 2010 reg cab, then I got a little froggy and debadged the tailgate, along with painting the front emblem black. I cleaned it really good with dish soap, dryed it then went to town with about 7-8 very thin coats of Krylon. Its been drying now for about 2 hours, so I am about to put it back on and pics coming very soon.

bump for feedback good or bad?

 

Nice good job!

 

nice job

 

how did you remove the emblems? Im wanting to paint all mine black

 

Theres just three little tabs they pop off and back on very easily.

 

I just wanted to see how the emblem turned out to give me confidence to possibly paint my grill black instead of buying a super white grill.

 

Looks good

 

nice! so pop the hood and I should see them right?

 

you don't even have to pop the hood,just grab on to it and pull,it should come right out

 

I really like the front emblem painted black... I HATE chrome and the front emblem is the last chrome thing on my Taco.

What paint did you use?

 

sweet..thanks man!...going to the garage now to do this..

 

damn that was easy...almost as easy as me.

So krylon paint huh? any certain kind?

 

Looks great!

 

Krylon gloss, it held up pretty nice. I think I might sand down my grill next weekend and try to throw some of this stuff on it, wish me luck. If it don't turn out then I'll just pull the trigger on a color matched one.

 

i like the painted badge..... blends in alot better with the grill than that chrome one

 

not bad

 

Nice ... I just debugged my truck 2
