    Nice truck. Nice stance. Those look like Cooper AT3’s. I had them on my F150. What size are you running?
    And what lift/level height do you have?

    Edit: Never mind, I just looked at a previous post where you have all the details.
    Thanks

    It's all about ceramic coating my friend. I spent years battling black cars, two bucket method, foam cannons, 3 step corrections that would take 10+ hours & 12+ beers only to still get those minor swirls that screw up light reflection and look like crap a few weeks/months down the road. Hundreds of dollars spent on fancy polishes, pads, gadgets, etc only to keep chasing your tail.

    I took a gamble nearly a year ago on getting Ceramic Pro on my black M3, the car stays in showroom condition all the time (no exaggeration here, it's a rolling mirror). Once a month I'll wash it (still using the two bucket method of course) but after that I just blow off the residual water droplets... No polishing, waxing, etc. The time saved alone paid for the heavy up-front cost.

    Any decent detail shop that provides this service should have a sample panel in the shop that you can test out, bring some brush in and rub it and do your best... You'd be shocked how durable this layer is.

    I've already sat aside the funds to have this process repeated on my Tacoma immediately after it comes in.

    My tailgate letters and all interior decals are red as well. Itd be sweet to have red angel eyes!

    I did the same thing late last October.....it came down to a few color choices available....the local Toyota dealership maintains a large inventory....this is truck country, too.....ad the Tacoma is unreal popular in these parts.

    My final two choices were Quicksand and Black. Both had same options. I mulled it over. Slept on it a night. Liked the Quicksand a great deal.

    It came down to this.....I want another muscle car badly and will be buying either a new Challenger or another MustangGT. It's gonna happen, but the timing is crap right now as I have a freshmen in college and want to wait until he's free & clear of school and working before I jump on such an expense.

    I needed a daily driver that would cover all my needs for my off days...hunting, fishing, goofing around, etc. I was replacing an 11 year old midsize 4x4 that I'd been really well served by and the Tacoma just made sense.

    The muscle car....were I to have bought it now, would have been BLACK....no doubt about it.

    So.....my compromise TACO was bought in BLACK. It's not a muscle car, but it'll tide me over for the next few years.

    When I do add the that next MustangGT or Challenger, I'll also be doing some fun stuff with my Tacoma....lift & rims, etc.
