    Thanks. I'd buy the overlays if I could just get the two sides. I'm not going to pay $100 and toss most of it in the trash. $50 I could stomach. The only other black emblems are from the 2nd gen. I might just plastidip them until an oem 3rd gen comes out. I got my wheels on this week and the chrome looks hideous now.

    My '92 was totaled, at the time it had 209,000 on the odometer. I got rear ended. The crash didn't even break glass but bent the tailgate and bed up. They said it was a total loss and gave me $5,300 for it and I bought it back for $200. I gave it to my brother and used it as a daily driver until he sold it with 250,000 miles on it.

    Thanks for the info! Do you know if they will work for a 2018? Also, are they plastic or metal running boards?

    My Taco is a 2018 so it for sure fits. Best way to install is installing the front ends first then work your way back.

    It’s plastic over a metal frame.

    Chrome had it's run. Some may want it, but I have a feeling the masses are no longer feeling it. If more new vehicles were shipped without chrome pieces, I'm sure most people would leave it alone. Since most manufactures ship with it, most if us have to figure out how to get rid of it.

    White wall tires were popular for a good while until that style faded away. I'm starting to see them back on muscle cars. Same goes for chrome. I think Batman started that whole matte black trend (just my guess):annoyed:

    It's not that i don't like chrome. I don't like chromed plastics. I think they are a cheap imitation of the real thing. If i think of chrome, i think of my grandpa's 57 Chevy. That is beautiful. On my Tacoma, nope.

    Also, I've always thought that orange looks best with black highlights. Orange is my favorite color and I've always wanted an orange vehicle. Thus, I got the Inferno.

    Chrome looks great on classic cars, classic muscle, hot rods, and lowriders. But chrome accents on moderns cars just seems cheap to me. It makes it look like you bought all your mods from Pep Boys.
