Your wheels are derped? How's it holding up?

 

Yeah. Derped em right after I got the truck. Almost a year, holding up great. They look just as good as day 1

 

Thanks, good to hear! Need to black out my wheels too.

 

Finally got the time to get all the new parts on

Over 50 newbie here. What does "derped" mean? Like my stock wheels, but would like them flat black better.

 

Painted with plastic paint. Peels off if you don't like it. Check out "Plastidip" paint.

 

Plasti dip

 

Thanks for the education

 

My fender flares, badges, and grille are all derped. Gonna do the the chrome on the rear, whenever I get time. Also put black letter inserts on the tailgate. Waiting on my Pro grille.

 

Lol, I was just thinking about myself being an over 50 noob today. You are in the right place, and there is lots to learn here.

As far as derp, check out this thread:

If I had TRD rims, I would consider using vinyl on the silver parts, but derping is an inexpensive way to check if you like the look or not.

Good luck and welcome to TW

 

just means plasti dipped. haha. i like them so much better being black, especially with this color. IMO the chrome doesn't work with QS.

(didn't read all the replies before I answered. haha.. now you really know what it means!)

yeah I'm happy with the longevity of it so far! spent $20 on plasti dip instead of $1000 on new wheels. hahah

 

Is that a leather bra on your Taco? (bug shield)

 

It's a AVS matte plastic bug shield. Here's a better pic
