    Guys...looking for an honest opinion here. Does anyone think it would look good to color match the mesh on a satoshi grille? I am doing my satoshi mod soon for my mag gray 2010 taco and was thinking about color matching the mesh. Give me your opinions. Thanks fellas! :confused:

    No! That would be way to much of the same color.

    Are you going to be spraying the triangles too? If so I think it would probably look too solid (too much of one color), but as already suggested if you don't like it you can always
    spray it black again. I'd be interested to see how it turns out.

    I vote no. You need some contrast.

    It would probably look OK with MGM since it's a dark color. May not even be noticable from a distance. I wouldn't do it with a bright color like red, blue or white, but with MGM give it a shot. Like others have said, you can always repaint it black if you don't like it.
