    Yes, sure did. I dip'ed the badges, the chrome grill, and the Toyota grill badge. Super easy, I think it made a nice touch...

    Agree, looks sweet. What antenna did you buy and how to you like it? Was thinking about getting a shorter one myself since it always whacks against my garage door opening when pulling in the garage...

    AntennaX, well worth the 20-30$. Found them online, and took 3-4 days to arrive from Florida.
