    I'm looking into skid plates - how do people feel about the white ones on the magnetic gray? I'd like to keep with the "semi-blacked out" look and feel that white would not match the rest of the truck well. I want the same style but haven't been able to find a black or charcoal/grey color...

    Anyone need a chrome grill??

    Next up is to plasti dip the badges and possibly the wheels.. not convinced on the wheels though. Any tips? Do you have to repaint often? I've seen some grey plasti dip with metallizer and considered that. Who has done that?

    Just blacked out badges with Plasti dip, came out alright, just did the tailgate to get a feel for it. Pretty easy. Took about an hour.

    Hey question for you, what's your tire/wheel setup? It looks great, and I like how the truck sits. Do you have a lift on your suspension or is it stock? Looks great.

    I have this on my MGM '15 Tacoma, I don't think it looks bad. It came as an installed option from the dealership when I bought it. I'll try to see if I have any pictures of it.

    I have one on my truck and it looks fine. Only reason I am taking mine off is to replace it with the stock skid so I can fit my pelfreybilt bumper.

    thanks, bud. they are 17" TRD wheels (matte black) with BFG A/T KO2 tires (275/70/17). 2" leveling kit in front, 1" block/u-bolt in the back. just enough to level it out and fit the tires with no rubbing - had to remove all mud flaps etc.

    I have the same one on my Taco. Just make sure you take it off when you go through the car wash. My first one was snapped off and even broke the bolt in half. Its not fun trying to get it out. Just a little helpful hint if you go with the stubby carbon antenna

    While I think that's looks pretty cool, I would imagine it's a great reason for a cop to pull you over.
