Canopy - Gold Tacoma with Black Canopy

Hey all!

New (2004) Tacoma owner and in the market for a canopy. Tacoma is Gold, but considering going with black canopy.

Anyone have a Gold truck with Black canopy? Thoughts on the going off color or staying gold?

Here's mine:

 

The soft tops are black and they look pretty good. I think black is the only off color you can get away with. Other color combos just don't look good, which is only a problem if you care about how your truck looks.

 

with your truck already trimmed in black, why not?

Especially if you are shopping for a used one, it will be much more likely to find.

And if you hate it, you can match it later.

 

True. I waited damn near a year to find one the same color. Then I had to drive 2.5 hours to meet the seller and install it in the rain. My search was made even more difficult because I have the 5' bed. Worth it in the end I guess.

 

this is gold



black (on silver but gives an idea)

 

Thanks all!

The previous owner had a black canopy, but my memory is too foggy to remember if the look worked. Would love to find a used canopy and know that black will be much easier to find than gold.

It's super hard to find images of gold and black combo online

 

Would prefer not to go with a soft top because eventually would like to have a rack. Great idea though.

 

I only mentioned the soft tops because they're often black and found on different colored trucks. Strictly for visualization purposes. I wasn't suggesting you buy one.

 

Totally! I've seen quite a few soft tops around town and can understand their use case.

Would love to just see what a the mismatch would look like just to make sure it's worth the time waiting for a used versus paying for a new one now. Appreciate the feedback though!
