How to paint skid plate poll

I have been wanting to paint my skid plate for a while and I saw someone else paint red TRD letters in their skid plate. Would it look good to paint the Toyota Trucks logo in silver in the middle of the skid plate and black surrounding, or just go with all black. It would probably be hard to see so should I even bother.

 

Go for it..I think it would look good.

 

I just painted by skids today. painted them black...they look great. Maybe I will be a fanboy and add a yota symbol too

 

I painted mine red.
I don't see why you'd put the toyota logo on it when you already have one on the grill.

 

people tend to forget what there driving i guess just paint it black

 

When I get home from AU, I'm going to build my own skids...will probably either powdercoat black or paint red/green/orange (one of those). Or both.

I think the toyota trucks logo would work though. How about black with a red trucks logo?

 

The skid plate is the ideal panel to play with if you want to practice or try some new paint technique, or just want to play. I would say paint it black with the logo, and spray clearcoat over that to give it a little extra layer of protection - it won't help much for rocks of course, but it will help against the little chips and grass rubs etc. I would even use metallic paint just to make it extra special - always good to feel good about a job done right, even if it is just a skid plate.

 

Paint it black... forget the logo. Duplicolor spray truck bed coating is very durable, keeps it's color, and will last a long time.

 

LOL at Ben hahahah thats a shitty pic of your silver skid hahaha


dude i say paint that design. Its unique and i bet will be kinda cool. It would look sick on 45acps skid...think thats a budbuild skid..

 

painted mine red, but i voted for black with Toyota Trucks logo cause i think it'd look awesome

 

Budbuilt FTW

 

Its just gonna get scratched off if you actually use it.....

 

chrome powder coat

 

huh...the silver skids look good.

 

i painted mine semi-gloss black. keep it subtle. now if it was a laser cut-out then go for it imo.

best pic i have:

 

i think black, somewhat glossy or w/clearcoat. no logo, we all know your driving a toyota, but just in case we didnt theres already a logo up front. unless you debadged the front like if u got a grillcraft or satoshi, then t might make sense to run a logo, but small, not huge. IMO. of course. either way itll look good with a fresh ass skid plate.

 

That emblem might look pretty cool.

I went with silver too

 

Get a real skidplate, from BB. Not the shitty stock one IMO.
