All cleaned up so I'm Dropping a pic... Chemical Guys Blacklight wash and polish/sealant really give the black paint a "deeper" appearance. I'll try and use it once a year from now on..

 

Yeah, probably take a before and after pic.

 

You should head over to the SR thread.

Oh sorry, was talking about the chemical guys "All cleaned up so I'm Dropping a pic... Chemical Guys Blacklight wash and polish/sealant really give the black paint a "deeper" appearance. I'll try and use it once a year from now on.."
but yeah stupid me didn't read it carefully that you already did it. My bad lol.

After owning two black vehicles (still have mine), all I can say is black paint is really not for lazy people.

 

Factory installed desert air intake

 

This metallic paint is much more forgiving than a non metallic black..

I just try and give a good pressure wash once every couple months and follow up with a spray wax. I've always had vehicles that you could spray way when dirty and they still looked good.... that's not the case with black at all... its always dirty. Even when its clean. Bright sunlight is my trucks worst enemy

 

My initial impulse was to get the SCS F5 wheels in silver... however that's not a "normal" color and there were only limited runs made... that made me gravitate towards the gunmetal... it was tough to get a set of 4 in the size/offset/color I wanted, so I wound up getting the bronze..... I didn't want a black truck (but that's what I wound up getting) and I didn't want bronze wheels (but that's what I wound up getting)..

It grew on me.. I feel like for wheels more important than color is the offset and size.. you have to be satisfied with how your rig sits. Then the color becomes less of a factor (to me anyway)

 

Black, bronze, and blue TE37X look amazing on black Tacoma's IMO

 

Indeed they DO.. your truck is sick..... pull out your pocketbook tho.... they ain't cheap

 

Nice rig

 

Thank you sir!
