    Congrats on the nice purchase and Welcome to TW. Keep reading the threads and the ideas will come. There is a lot of good info here. Use the Search and hang on to your wallet :)

    I also thought about painting my grill, mirrors, door handles and the rear bumper white, but I figured the mirrors will get scratched up on the trails and if I'm not going to paint mirrors, then there is no point to paint the rest.
    Eventually I'm going to get a winch bumper and will probably paint the grill black to match it and just keep the black and white theme going all around. Rear bumper will be black also along with all the badges.

    Hope this helps

    P.S. Nice choice in color :)

    I just purchased a kit from trdparts4u.com that includes everything you need for painted door handles. And since your truck is an access cab, it will be cheaper and easier than it was for my truck being a 4 door.

    I bought a cheap aftermarket OEM replacement grill off of autoanything.com since the body shop didn't want to spray the OEM chrome one.
    http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/s...43.html?intcmpid=Product+Listings+Best+Seller

    Then had the body shop paint the handles, mirrors, grille, squirters and rear bumper. The rear bumper was expensive since it had to be stripped of all chrome before painting but only $200 for everything else. The rear bumper was $350.
