    I saw another silver taco with black rims and red calipers and i really liked it. I think i only liked it cause my calipers looked so shitty before. After opening my new rotors (after i had painted my calipers) i notice they are silver with black paint.. had i known i wouldn't have bothered. Anyone else think the red doesn't fit at all? I'm thinking of finding some caliper paint to color match the spidertrax spacers or silver, opinions appreciated :)

    Most would love to have the color matched sport pkg and here you go, trying to remove it..lol..On a side note, I don't think plastidip will last on areas with great usage such as door handles.

    ^ I agree. The gas door is more disturbing. LOL. Color coat the Tacoma emblem in Red and you'll be fine.
