    What's the best/easiest way to color match the stock chrome grill on my 2015 OR?

    Buy a color matched one. So I just spent about $50 for 2 cans of color matched spray paint off of Amazon. I've tried 3 different Duplicolor cans that say they are the 8T5 color code, or at least they send me there when I search for that code, and they are all for the other Tacoma blue's or they are off a bit. One of them was a pretty close match, but as soon as I put it in the sun next to the truck, the color was way off, but in the shade it looked damn close.

    I imagine it would need to be professionally painted to perfectly match the rest of the truck.

    Any idea how much it costs to buy one?

    There's a couple dealers on here that sell grills for about $180 or so. Unsure if thats for 2012+ or not. You'd probably spend roughly 200-400 to have it repainted and color matched, depending on where you go and how good of a job you want. If you have the patience you could probably do it yourself in weekend and it would turn out pretty good, just make sure to learn all the proper steps to do a good paint job.

    Maybe I'll just keep an eye out for one in the For Sale forums. Not sure if it's worth $200 to me...unless someone is willing to buy my chrome one for like $100-200. Any takers? :)

    Not a bad deal I suppose! Thanks for the recommendation.

    Also, where do I get a pair of those sweet lights you have inside your grill and how many inches is that lift? Truck looks sharp!
