    Thanks man!

    You can check my build page to see how I did it. I started with the chrome but ended up painting the entire grill in the end. Just remember... prep work is the key.

    I agree it looks much better in the spot and next to the black emblems.

    Much better. The red spot on the white truck makes it look a little more "Japanese".

    Nice truck, but too much "TRD" going on there. Maybe remove the bedside decals?

    Added extra awesomeness to its original awesomeness.
    I like it both ways, mainly because its different. That being said, on the door next to the emblem looks pretty sweet!

    I am not a fan of badges, I took all them off my truck. If I was you I would trim your front mud flaps before they crack. :thumbsup:

    What??? You can never have too much TRD! Nah man I get what you're saying. I really wish the emblems were black and red but I kind of like how they match the back emblem.

    Thanks!

    That.... is definitely on my list!

    Yeah that's where I got it. I saw a black and silver one (might have looked better on the truck) but I didn't see a black and red one. Might have over looked it though.

    The red looks good, gives it one offset accent piece/color.

    I have always thought that white trucks, all blacked out, look friggin' badass. I do think the new badge, on the tailgate, might look pretty cool. Nice truck, man.

    Yeah it would. I've got this sticker on there right now (before I blacked the emblems out) and I have never seen this North Face sticker before and I kind of like where it sits.

    Thanks man!



    Took this picture this morning before the rain is supposed to get here for the next 3 days :rolleyes:. I really like this picture.

    My N-Fab Bar comes in tomorrow and then to decide on a 20 or 30" LED bar. Ordered the Bed rack system from KB Voodoo and I'm going to mount a Yakima load warrior to that. I may also put a 40" bar on top but that is still up in the air at this time.

    It will go in the build thread when I make my final decision. I'm asking for opinions right now. If you don't want to look at it then don't simple as that. My build thread will be my final products installed on the truck. :rolleyes: Geez
