    Truck looks great- I like a lot of the accents you have on it. Some ATs would help it, but if everything is functional the way you like it, roll with it. Your antennae mount looks good.

    Other modifications may balance out the front with the previously mentioned brush guard- my opinion, looks like too much going on in the front with the brush guard. But, if you think it's functional and value added- keep it and build for your function.

    Again, personally really like the red with your black accents. Black handles and black mirrors would offset well- coming from the guy who drives a Utility.

    I use this online dealer for parts- they are actually reasonable, but order all your stuff at once to save on shipping. Search some of the posts, another guy blacked his trim pieces out with OEM parts, I thought it looked good. This site lets you put your VIN in and search by OEM part number.

    This may or may not be the handle for you, but gets you to the website. You may also have to research if you have tech stuff in your door handle, like some of the packages have that I have read about. Their prices are pretty good, shipping is what gets you.

    Note, the handle below would be for a 2017 Double Cab or something.

    Honestly not really... It looks cool and I'm sure ill use it one day but honestly it's uses are limited... It says its only able tp hold 100 pounds if I'm right. I've used it for Christmas lights and great for hanging on to when cleaning the roof and windshield that's about it. In regards to how I like them, the fitment isnt perfect but it looks good I like them and the cross bars can switch from its current position to cross bars in 15 seconds tops. The only thing is it adds wind noise which is a mute point for me as my exhaust an music make this not a issue.

    I come to the realization that i need to balance the scale of the modifications, also i appreciate the credit on the color matching. The Toyota letters on the grill are actually hand painted. I was wondering if anything had anything to say about my cb radio, that is actually a custom mount sold online.

    Any map lighting and chrome deletes from meso customs is a good place to start.

    The brush guard has a serious Jurassic Park feel to it, haha. Not my style, but like a few others have stated, do what YOU want to do to YOUR truck to make YOURSELF happy. Now go chase down some Raptors or TRXs.
