So I started to black out

starting to black out my truck. was in my local ace hardware and they were closing down so everything was 50% off and came across some 13 ga. expanded metal and thought to myself now is the time to do this. So I bought the the last sheet they had and then went to partsgeek and bought a aftermarket black grill surround and on to Amazon for the turn signals. all invested is 60.00 dollars including paint (got that at ace).
this is what i have tell me what you think!




I still have all the OEM pieces just in case i decide to chang back!

 

Noice!!

 

Dang that looks great! I definitely either remove the emblem or lower and center it as it looks out of place.

 

looks good!

 

I kinda wanted to keep the emblem to break it up a bit but wasnt to sure where to put it nice thing is it can be moved! also was thinking of putting a 4" silver buckmark there instead? any ideas

 

if youre going to keep the emblem center it and flip it upside down.

check my grill out for reference.

 

looks good, emblem looks ackward

 

wanted to do the toyota badge but cant find any local! ive been keepin my eye ouy on the b/s thread what i would like is one from a old prerunner.

 

Definitely move the emblem. And paint your bumper

 

Plan on painting both the fron and rear bumpers as soon as i get some time off when its not raining! got the last 3 cans of plastidip from ace..3 bucks a can!

 

also was thinking on putting a couple of these on the grill instead of badge?

 

I like the grille. Look in some junkyards for pickups. They usually have some badges for you to take. I have EFI ones on my doors and a TOYOTA 4WD on my ARB.
