    I don't know if it's "creative" but silver might not look bad. Maybe a silver textured paint or silver bedliner (if there is such a thing). Maybe paint the stock skid plate silver too. Thanks to whoever I stole the picture from.

    About the only thing that I think will work is to paint it silver along with the skid plate to tie it together. Most other colors will look weird.
    There are many variations of silver - aluminum, platinum, chrome, etc..

    You could stencil TACOMA into the it.

    Or maybe cut out "TACOMA" in it and back light it???

    I wouldn't do it but just throwing it out there
