    I know somewhere along the way somebody may have suggested it but how about bronze with black center caps and the red TRD or even bronze TRD.

    mine are black.

    Damn I have the same wheels in black. I would love to see them in bronze. I'm sure if I saw them in bronze I would powder coat right away. Do it

    Thanks man, I really like the look, the pic doesnt do it justice, had to add a filter to get the wheel color to come out. Looks way better, now im tryn to decide wither to de-badge, or do all the badges in bronze

    I vote debadge. I think having g all the badges match the wheels would be a little much. You can always pull them off and paint them and reinstall temporarily. If you hate the look pull the back off.
