Has anyone ever blacked this out?

I was wondering if anyone had ever blacked out this area of the 2nd gen tacoma and if so how. The cheap grey plastic bugs me and is the only thing making me want to upgrade to a third gen.

 

Good idea. I’d like to see that done.

 

Welcome to TW..

 

It could be done. There are spray paints for leather and vinyl I believe.

Made an acc just to post this

 

I’ve done the dash and console. I wish the lower crash panels door panels were the dash color too

 

I've scratched the crap out of my lower dash. I wish it was more durable or easier to fix.

 

It can be done. Just need to take it apart, prep the crap out of it and spray with some plastic/vinyl dye. Prep is key. Have to make sure every bit of interior cleaner/shine juice is off of it

 

I’ve had very good luck with Rustolium 2X paint on plastic. It’s what I would use if I felt the need to paint the interior plastic parts. Get the parts out of the vehicle, of course

sweet looking truck, same one i have but i don't have any upgrades… just a blank canvas. Bought it about 2 weeks ago for an absolute steal

 

2nd gen best tacoma drivetrain, 3rd gen is a downgrade

 

i would agree, however im not dragging my car across trails too much, so an upgrade would be nice for interior, but im not sure i have the funds…

 

Cerakote paint in air dry form.

 

Oooh! This is an idea. I have a guy near that does Cerakote.

 

Let me know if you do it!

 

Here the dash, center console, radio bezel, ac bezel, gauge trims, steering controls. All OE parts.

 

Definitely gonna go get a quote.

 

It's extremely durable,and a 1000x better than any other paint.
You can but Prevail disposable sprayers $7 at home depot and do it yourself.

 

Yeah. They use on guns parts.

 

Oh sweet. Ive got a 3d printer and a bit of design knowledge, itd be alot of hard work but im curious at how much i can “force” the 2nd gen tacoma to look like a 3rd gen. If not blacking everything out like that is my second choice.
